Turning down the music so that he won't wake up early
Waiting for the look in your eyes, when we're there
Have you ever been so quiet, calm and peaceful
Your everlasting dream has never been that near

I thought he's awed by the sea
But It feels like home
High hopes that he will be free
But actually

Finally arrived, but he's still counting all the seashells
As time is passing by, he starts all over again

Looking back
Needing friends to arrive at school at half past 8
Remembering
Sorting grandpas war medals by size
Looking back
Watching his brother scoring touchdowns on the field
Remembering
Tidying up his room by himself

I thought he's awed by the sea
But It feels like home
High hopes at least it will be
A memory

Finally arrived, but he's still counting all the seashells
As time is passing by, he starts all over again
Towering waves, but he doesn't even notice
As I watch him from behind I just take his hand

Finally arrived, but he's still counting all the seashells

Finally arrived, but he's still counting all the seashells
Towering waves, but he doesn't even notice
As I watch him from behind I just take his hand
