Can I not cast this love into the sea
At least there it will be free
It can choose to sink to the ocean floor
Or drift with the tides
To a faraway place
Can I not cast this love into the sky
At least there it can unfurl
Far across the mountains and hilltops
Or get carried away with the wind
To a faraway place
