Stephen Fearing - Out to Sea lyrics

Some nights I see myself trying to hold back the tide Standing in the water with my arms flung wide Looking at myself through another fish's eyes Or a seagull gusted high Carolina told me what love could really be And as she spoke she laid it out so sure and simply But no matter what I do I think I'm always gonna find That I cannot bridge the gap between my heart and mind Oh I just can't tell Oh I don't know why History repeats itself Before my very eyes Some nights I see myself being swept out to sea With the rain and salty water dancing all around me With the other wretched faces looking for a line Or a hand to help us through these troubled times Carolina showed me what life could really be And as she spoke she laid it out so sure and simply But no matter what I do I think I'm always gonna find That I cannot bridge the gap between my heart and mind Oh I just can't tell Oh I don't know why History repeats itself Before my very eyes
