  1. While My Love Is Away (for LYRICS click song titles) -:-- / -:--

I look in the window upon my chest
Water and salt and my naked breast
A pearl in the shell
And a secret I can’t wait to tell
My hand on the rail of this windy ride
Eyes on the land on the starboard side
This is the way that I live
While my love is away

Find me the coldest sea
I will go up to my knees
Find me the hottest sand
How much can I stand
How much can I hold in my hand

All that I want is in front of me
All that I fear is my history
Blessed the daughter
Who opens this page to the water
Picture me breathing the ocean air
Face to the sky and my arms are bare
This is the way that I live
While my love is away

Scared of dark I tear at the stars
And I find…

Find me the coldest sea
Over the wave of virginity
Find me the hottest sand
How much can I stand
How much can I hold in my hand
