The Twinkling Tide





Waves surge, sweeping the sandy shore
Before they wash back out to sea
To break across the coast once more
This is the song of century
On century,
On century
But this is not
Eternity

Ocean's perpetual ebb and flow
Rises and falls incessantly 
As generations come and go
Still plays its haunting melody
From century
To century
But this is not
Eternity
