"Surrender And Certainty" lyrics

"Surrender And Certainty"

Smooth stones down by the waterside
Give in to ebb and flow
Collide in blindness embrace and part
No fear of letting go
There's no fight to get ahead
Nowhere that they'd rather be

Safe in the arms of surrender and certainty
Caught in a moment and sure they'll be carried
Take me back down to the water to feel that sure
Of anything

I write your name down in the swollen sand
And I walk out in the waves
I know you're here I feel you all around me
In this sea of soothing gray
I don't even feel the cold
It's warm as you wash over me

Safe in the arms of surrender and certainty
Caught in a moment and sure they'll be carried
Take me back down to the water to feel that sure
Of anything

Rain like tears stream down the windshield
As we pull out on the road
You were the star by which I light my way
So how do I find my way now?

Back in the arms of surrender and certainty
Caught in a moment but sure we'll be carried
I want to know what it feels like to be that sure
Of anything
