And the spell it was broken

And I saw with my own eyes

I never knew that the water could rise so very high

There was a time I remember

There was a time it was otherwise

There was a time that the water didn't rise and rise

But the wide open water leads to the sea

The wide open water can set you free

I never learned to turn my boat

Into the waves to survive

I let the cruel, cruel water just rise and rise

Was there a time, can I remember?

Was there a time when it was otherwise?

Was there a time that the water didn't rise so very high?

But the wide open water leads to the sea

The wide open water can set you free

But the wide open water leads to the sea

The wide open water can set you free
