Don't Cry Your Saltwater Tears For Me

Don't cry your salt water tears for me
And shake the sand out of your hair
You can hear the ocean calling from the seashells of your ears
Treading water
Letting the waves crash over you
Letting the seaweed tangle your hair
Don't go under

Don't cry your salt water tears for me
And watch the tide come and go.
People are like the tide
They are there,
And then they aren't
But the water will always be there

Don't cry your saltwater tears for me
And press your feet into the sand
Let the waves carry you to your castle
Carrying away your footprints with them
Trace your name in the sand
Let it be washed away
That is how easy it is to break us
All you have to do is erase

Don't cry your salt water tears for me
And hold your head up high
Watch the sun sink into the ocean
Tell yourself it's okay to cry.
