Mother

Love bigger than the ocean Is what you've given to me You hunted down every danger So my brother and I could swim free In a love bigger than the ocean The shores, they were mighty scary But at my back I had the mighty sea There's something so strange about human nature We get so used to the gifts that we receive Now I'm more than grateful for a love bigger than the ocean I dreamt you were down by the water You looked so proud and happy to see me You were laying down some kind of red carpet on the beach I said "Mom, I'm not sure what this means" It was an invitation to a love bigger than the ocean Now we've got children of our own We dive back into the waters we have known As you loved us, we'll love them to the brim Because of you, they already know how to swim In a love bigger than, a love deeper than the ocean I still have so much I wanna tell you I still have so much to figure out There's so much of you in every reflection of my life I hope you know I couldn't be more proud Of this life swimming in a love deeper than the ocean --- Mother - Sleeping At Last
