Something Solid

(Steve Simpson)
I was treading waves up to my nose,
Frantically seeking with my toes,
Gasping and drinking,
Tiring and sinking,
Then my foot found something solid.

High on a rocky mountainside,
I felt my feet begin to slide,
Grasping and clawing,
Praying and falling,
Then my hand found something solid.

Chorus
When I was drowning in the sea,
When I was falling helplessly,
When life was letting go of me,
I found you.

My heart was starving and weak,
Just dream pops and wish puffs to eat,
Searching and waiting,
Wasting and fading,
Then my heart found something solid.

Chorus

I was treading waves up to my nose,
Frantically seeking with my toes,
Gasping and drinking,
Tiring and sinking,
Then my foot found something solid.
Then my hand found something solid.
Then my heart found something solid......
You!
