If Only You Were Here
By Giver-of-Hope

a sword, a ship
a sunset, a shell
a tender kiss
if only you were here

a sail, a mast
a ship and a storm
a child born
if only you were here

the wind blows wild
surrounding us all
fall overboard
if only you were here

a true pirate
a love for treasure
but then you drowned
if only you were here

i watched you fall
while clasping our child
we looked all over
if only you were here

we left the boat
forgetting our past
but never you
if only you were here
