[Verse 1]
Every morning I walk to the water
I call out your name
And though you don't hear me
I hope you're seein' my way
Oh, the birds – they dance for me
And the sun rises in my eyes
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Other ships have tried to reach my shore
But I let them sail on by
Other ships have tried to anchor me
But I let them pass on by
[Chorus]
'Cause it's a lifetime thing
Oh, like the water needs the shore
I need the love you once gave me, baby
(I need it, I need it, I need it
I need it, I need it) well, well...
In that I need you more
[Verse 2]
On this island there's a treasure
But it's buried deep inside
In a garden waitin' for you
Ah, the one I call Paradise
Now it's such a lonely island
Without your company
[Verse 1]
Every morning I walk to the water
I call out your name
And though you don't hear me
I hope you're seein' my way
Oh, the birds – they dance for me
And the sun rises in my eyes
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Other ships have tried to reach my shore
But I let them sail on by
Other ships have tried to anchor me
But I let them pass on by
[Chorus]
'Cause it's a lifetime thing
Oh, like the water needs the shore
I need the love you once gave me, baby
(I need it, I need it, I need it
I need it, I need it) well, well...
In that I need you more
[Verse 2]
On this island there's a treasure
But it's buried deep inside
In a garden waitin' for you
Ah, the one I call Paradise
Now it's such a lonely island
Without your company
