Stone From the Ocean

Keith Landry

This pretty much sums it all up for me I guess.

STONE FROM THE OCEAN

Keith Landry: Vocals, Guitar

Chasing the daylight
On the horizon
Down to the sea
The tilt of the shoreline
The weight of the water
The call of the deep

I swear I was born in the ocean
And someday it’ll set me free
I’ll hold on as long as I can
Like a stone from the ocean
Tossed on the sand

The first thing I remember
Was burning white sunlight
Hot sand on the beach
I ran into the water
Got pulled out with the tide
Just out of reach

I swear I was born in the ocean
And someday it’ll set me free
The waves carried me back to dry land
Like a stone from the ocean
Tossed on the sand

If you were to ask me to do it all over again
I’d do it all over again so don’t get me wrong
I don’t mind the feeling of the earth beneath my feet
I just always felt like I never belonged

The last thing I hope to remember
Is lying right here
In the sun on the sand
May it be a long time coming
May I be an old man

Promise you’ll bring me back to the water
Let me slip between your hands
And speak of me when you can
Like a stone from the ocean
Tossed on the sand
