Analysis of Upon a sea of love



Upon a sea of love i
sail to many places i have
been the ocean is always changing
from shades of blue to green
i have crossed unchartered waters
as i am searching for your love
i have been to far horizons and
to the mountains high above
i set my compass to your heart
with the wind at my sail
as i move close towards you
i know that love will be so strong
for us.The seabirds serve to guide
me as i reach the sandy shore
like the ever changing tides
you keep me coming back for
more love and it is so great.
My compass signals that you're
near as i walk along the golden sand,
