lyrics

All these years I've known you deep
Heard your voice loud in my sleep
Smiled at you in my defeat
Though my heart is breaking
Saw you riding with her near
Saw you holding her so dear
But I've been laughing through my tears
Though my heart is breaking

Oh children can't you see I'm sinking like a stone
Going further deep, here I will sleep under the foam
He be walking fast, fast away and I'll forget his face one day
But until then here I will stay
Though my heart is breaking

The summer sings her memory song
Tells me of your moving on
But in your shadow I stand strong
Though my heart is breaking
I've never been in love before
Strong as this old oceans' roar
He waits not for me on the shore
Though my heart is breaking

Oh children can't you see I'm sinking like a stone
Going further deep, here I will sleep under the foam
He be walking fast, fast away and I'll forget his face one day
But until then here I will stay
Though my heart is breaking

The rise and falling of the tide
Rages in my head tonight
Regretful wrongs I cannot right
Though my heart is breaking
I'll see him there in front of me
Hear his voice loud on the sea
And I'll love him where 'er he be
Though my heart is breaking

Oh children can't you see I'm sinking like a stone
Going further deep, here I will sleep under the foam
He be walking fast, fast away and I'll forget his face one day
But until then here I will stay
Though my heart is breaking
