Harbour of Us

I remember seeing you

Standing by the harbour in the sun

Wind was blowing through your hair And somehow you became the one

We were sailing through the afternoon

Chasing sunlight through the waves

Talking like we'd known each other

Long before that summer day

Somewhere between the ropes and sails Between the laughter and the blue

I stopped thinking about tomorrow

I was falling hard for you

We fell hard, we fell deep

Into something neither one could keep

You were the harbour,

I was the sea And you brought out the best in me

Then September came too soon Two universities,

two different moons We said we'd make it,

we'd be alright

But distance changed our lives overnight

We spent those final weeks together

Trying not to count the days

Taking pictures in the sunlight

Trying to make the memories stay

You told me about your future

I told you where I wanted to go

But neither one of us could answer

What we'd do when we had to go

Then came the morning you left

Your bags were waiting by the door

I wanted to tell you not to go But I knew what

you were leaving for

We fell hard, we fell deep

And you're still a part of me

Every sail and every wave

Takes me back to those summer days Now you're somewhere far away

Living dreams we used to say But when I look across the

sea

A part of you still stays with me

Maybe someday, somewhere down the line We'll meet again at the perfect

time Two kids who fell beside the sea

Wondering what we could have been

So Sarah, wherever you are tonight I hope you're chasing your dreams

And if you

ever think of me Look towards the ocean and you'll see We

may have sailed different ways But I'll never forget those days You

were my favourite summer

And you'll always be part of me
