Ares Philharmonic Orchestra - Ocean spray Lyrics

Eldom did I see, on life's edge dance,
A butterfly's rare magic quite as yours -
The waves' spray gently touched your smile
And in a moment's never ending gaze - I died.

Time follows us like shadow blind
Though in due course
It pulls our souls and shifts a path
Where none imagined you before

So wondrous did we peel the seconds off with words
Exchanging sparks of life between our lips.
I held your hand for oh too short a time -
Sometimes eternity is lost when it's unseen.

The sun passed over us and shone along the water
The stars blessed too when hours long we dreamed like kids at night.
I wished to pull you closer oh so many times
But wondering at your beauty - told me still to wait.

A lifetime passed when close we gently kissed -
And on the other side your hand and touch felt as it should.
There was so much I still was eager to pour out and share
And deepest friendships' net felt safe and asked for patience.

Oh had I known how rare those moments were, how fleeting fast -
I think I'd never let you leave
And now the mirror of past moments starts to dull and fall
I try to catch what feels so lost and catch it not.

When in those moments of a shared long memory
I touched your hair and felt your curious thoughts
In gentle palm that touched and followed journey yours-
I did not know what price I'd have to pay for memories
So far away now, and so precious dear.

So rare is it to see a mind invent a reason
For life to live and joy to share and happiness -
So clear, so simple and so perfect known,
As if I lived a thousand lifetimes in your past -
And millions in the moments shared.
