Past? Perfect. Present, Tense!

Standing on the seashore
Ships sailing past
They disappear over the horizon
Steady and fast

The sand doesn't shift with time
And the air still as a lagoon
The ships they still disappear
Steady and fast

I rode the waves too, once before
On a ship, not too long ago
Sailed out in fair weather
Farther from a shore, away from treasure

In the distance, a light shines
Guiding me back home
All my memories rush ashore
The scent of mother's roses lining the porch

And that rocking chair
I loved before
Tell me, are the faces still familiar
Or is there now
Another place you call home

Standing on the seashore
Ships sailing past
They disappear over the horizon
Steady and fast
