The Coral Castle - Andrew Peterson[00:00:00]
Written by:Andrew Peterson[00:00:01]
Late one night I had a notion[00:00:10]
An epiphany would be a better word[00:00:15]
So I stumbled in the dark down to the ocean[00:00:20]
And I pulled my broken heart out of the surf[00:00:26]
I had told her I did not have much to offer[00:00:31]
And I had told her I would treat her like a queen[00:00:36]
But I guess I wasn't worth what I would cost her[00:00:41]
So the night has brought me to this coral reef[00:00:47]
So down to the water I will come[00:00:52]
To raise for her this castle with my hands[00:00:57]
And steal away before the morning comes[00:01:02]
'Cause I don't need her love to love her all I can[00:01:07]
No no[00:01:12]
So night on night and year on hear[00:01:20]
Well I worked until my hands no longer bled[00:01:26]
And I let the ocean bear away my tears[00:01:31]
So that she would know that I could love her best[00:01:36]
And a desert's just a sea without a shore[00:01:42]
And a lonely man at worst is still a man[00:01:47]
And I ain't gonna cry for her no more[00:01:52]
'Cause I don't need her love to love her all I can[00:01:57]
No no[00:02:02]
I often dreamed I saw her face among the people[00:02:12]
Who'd come to see the coral fortress I had built[00:02:17]
But it may as well have been another seagull[00:02:23]
And the castle is there waiting for her still[00:02:28]
So down to the water I will come[00:02:33]
To wander through this castle on the sand[00:02:39]
And steal away before the morning sun[00:02:44]
'Cause I don't need her love to love her all I can[00:02:49]
I don't need her love to love her all I can[00:02:54]
No no[00:02:59]
