Deep Blue Currents

It was 1997 when I last walked along the golden shore of Ventura Beach
I remember it vividly, within my mind
As though it happened only yesterday

Early morning, as the waves rolled in
Alone with thoughts on my mind
And as I looked into the deep blue waters
I thought of the future to come
And the past that had gone

And standing there, I knew in my mind
That life would work out somehow

Because life, so much, like the deep blue ocean
Constantly changing currents
Constantly changing shape
Constantly changing before our eyes
