Random Acts of Casey

She walked by the ocean,
And waited for a star,
To carry her away.

Feeling so small,
At the bottom of the world,
Looking up to God.

She tries to take deep breaths,
To smell the salty sea,
As it moves over her feet.

The water pulls so strong,
And no-one is around,
And the moon is looking down.

Saying,
Rosie - come with me,
Close your eyes - and dream.

The big ships are rolling,
And lighting up the night,
And she calls out, but they just pass her by.

The waves are crashing,
But not making a sound,
Just mouthing along.

Saying,
Rosie - come with me,
Close your eyes and dream,
Close your eyes and dream,
Close your eyes and dream.
