My Wave From The Ocean

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There was a time the light went dim The shore felt miles away I stopped believing in the tide Stopped waiting for the day Then like a wave you rolled right in And pulled me from the grey [Chorus] You taught me how to breathe again To love this life I'm living You are the sunrise on my skin The best thing I've been given So here's to you, here's to us Here's to all that's just beginning [Verse 2] Sammy, you walk like the ocean moves Steady and salt and free Your surfer heart carried me home To where I'm meant to be We traced the streets of my childhood You held that history [Chorus] You taught me how to breathe again To love this life I'm living You are the sunrise on my skin The best thing I've been given So here's to you, here's to us Here's to all that's just beginning [Bridge] Your family opened up their arms And made a place for me Now every room inside our house Feels like a family [Verse 3] We'll chase the coastlines of this world With sand between our toes Wherever the next adventure leads Sammy, that's where I'll go You loved me more than I loved myself And that's how the garden grows [Chorus] You taught me how to breathe again To love this life I'm living You are the sunrise on my skin The best thing I've been given So here's to you, here's to us Here's to all that's just beginning [Outro] So smile, Sammy, let the sun rise again Happy birthday, my love, my ocean, my friend
