Shoreline Lyrics - Ron Sexsmith

I can see it in your faraway eyes 

I can hear it in your lonely sighs 

I know you're looking for the shoreline 

In your mind 

Somewhere the waves are crashing in 

It's hard when two people want different things 

But I'd like to help you find that shoreline 

In your mind 

All I want is to see you smile 

Surely there's a way 

We can both be happy 

Oh my darling 

You know I'm a city boy at heart 

You're a mermaid in an ocean dark 

But maybe it's everywhere that we are 

Where we are 

All I want is to see you smile 

Surely there's a way 

We can both be happy 

I know my darling 

I can see it in your faraway eyes 

I can hear it in your lonely sighs 

I know you're looking for the shoreline 

In your mind 

I'd love to help you find that shoreline 

In our time
