On Your Shore

Strange how my heart beats
To find myself upon your shore
Strange how I still feel
My loss of comfort gone before

Cool waves wash over
And drift away with dreams of youth
So time is stolen
I cannot hold you long enough

And so this is where I should be now
Days and nights falling by
Days and nights falling by me
I know of a dream I should be holding
Days and nights falling by
Days and nights falling by me

. . . Strange how I falter
To find I'm standing in deep water
Strange how my heart beats
To find I'm standing on your shore

Enya
On Your Shore
(from the 1988 album, Watermark)
