A song i heard the ocean sing
A shining light in darkness deep
I prayed a prayer into the tide
And both they soothed me in my sleep

For every season that has passed i prayed a prayer into the tide
A shining light in darkness deep
In me ten years before the mast

For every season that has passed i laid my body o'er the side
A shining light in darkness deep
I prayed a prayer into the tide

How can i answer questions i've known?

A song i heard the ocean sing
A shining light in darkness deep
Ten years before the mast
I heard the ocean sing
