The Oceanside
Words and Music by Adam Lockwood

I’m sitting by the oceanside
Trying not to dream
As ships float by and rising tides
Crawl up to my feet

The salty breeze, it carries me
Somewhere far away
But I don’t mind, I’ve got the time
To wander as I please

The hope of glory swells within me
As I cast my cares out to the sea
And I pray that love will find me waiting
Patiently

The sunset casts silhouettes
Of swaying palm trees
So scootch your side up next to mine
And swear you’ll never leave

The hope of glory swells within me
As I cast my cares out to the sea
And I pray that love will find me waiting
Patiently

I can’t bear the weight of the world
All its pretense and diamonds and pearls
All things fade away, fade away

The hope of glory swells within me
As I cast my cares out to the sea
And I pray that love will find me waiting
Patiently
