The Shore
by Jim Misseldein
Do you take me for a fool
For coming on so uncontrollably?
Like a wave upon the shore
That washes in and then returns to sea
Well, there was nothing else for me to do
No other way for me to take
I knew the first time I saw your face
My heart would win or it would break
On and on and on it goes
That old saying still applies
It's better to have lost in love
Than never to have tried
Lord knows I've tried
Sometimes that's not enough
When I was with you
I had a view of who I want to be
And these thoughts will never leave
I know they'll always be a part of me
But to come so close to happiness
And then to see it slip away
Leaves me here alone in loneliness
And bleeds the blues to grey
On and on and on it goes
That old saying still applies
It's better to have lost in love
Than never to have tried
Lord knows I've tried
Sometimes that's not enough
Into woman washes man
Like the ocean washes into land
Holding on for just one moment in the sand
And turned away forever more
I am the wave, you are the shore
And I'm on my way back to sea
