lyrics

I went down to the hardware store
on a mission to be free
bought a bag of sand, a folding chair
and a juvenile palm tree
with the sand in my shoes I felt I could
almost feel the breeze
from the distant ocean
washing over me

I signed up for an online class
set to be a better me
tried to focus on the words
of all the talking heads I see
with the whispers in my ears
I felt I could almost hear that far off sea
waves rushing overland
washing over me

But I'm landlocked
oh I'm landlocked
aching for salt water
I'm landlocked

I bought another painting
to hang upon my wall
echoes of a golden reef
fish swimming through it all
with the tears in my eyes
I felt I could see them flash and stall
swirling in a current
that could wash away us all

But I'm landlocked
oh I'm landlocked
aching for salt water
I'm landlocked

I close my eyes and I see
that wide horizon inside me

I take another breath and sigh
wonder when my friends I'll see
I know it won't be one day soon
but someday we'll roam free
with the border in my rearview
I will run to find that breeze
the call of salt water washing over me

But I'm landlocked
oh I'm landlocked
aching for salt water
I'm landlocked

For now I'm landlocked
still landlocked
waiting for salt water
to come washing over me

For now I'm landlocked

about

Jane Cameron Melbourne, Australia

beauty is... tears in laughter, small joys even in the midst of sorrow, a drifting feather, a cold beach, the wind over the ocean, cold fingers on the skin making your heart warm, storm clouds and lightning, rain, the sun through green leaves in the morning, voices singing, the rhythm of a drum, the beat of your heart, the sigh of your breath and moments of pure relaxation...and a ukulele helps. ... more
