A storm was near, the ocean roared
And as I feared, I went overboard
The rain was hard, the water rolled
My heart was numb, and my body cold
Then I saw a distant sight
There she stood, a sailor's light
That lighthouse lamp was shining bright
And I swam to her through the rhythm of the wild, wild ocean

I swam for hours to reach her shore
Through lightning showers and weather wars
I beat the night and it's typhoon
And reached the light by the morning moon
And as I crawled upon the land
A grounded angel met me on the sand
All she said was ""Take my hand.""
And my heart beat for her like the rhythm of the wild, wild ocean

She took my hand with compassion's glove
She took me in, a wounded dove
I fell asleep, and I fell in love
And my heart beat for her like the rhythm of the wild, wild ocean

Another night, another storm
This time, the light kept me warm
I laid beside her precious flame
While the storm outside called my name
She held me close, I held her tight
Our silhouettes embraced the night
And there below that sailor's light
I made love to her like the rhythm of the wild, wild ocean
