Surrender

have you ever seen the atlantic in winter?
if you wanted to, would that be enough?
because i've seen you in dreams a lot
and i've wondered if i'm the only one
with her head in the clouds
and her hands searching for yours.

have you reached out, but missed your chance?
if i said i loved you, would it make you smile?
because i don't know what i want anymore,
but i'm pretty sure it's far away
and i'll never be able to catch it,
so i might as well surrender.

have you ever wanted to be someplace else?
if i promised to hold you hand, could i convince you?
because i'm looking for someone to cling to,
a warm room with a nice view,
a pleasent smile,
and you.
