Hidden beneath the earth
In a grotto, the tide rolls in
Is this place I can call my very own
Where tranquil waters caress my skin
I watch the sunlight streaming
From the darkness of my cave
Reflections float around me
Yet, I am not afraid
Though peaceful ripples signal
The tide is about to change
I will not leave this treasure
For everywhere else is strange
Here is where I feel at home
This is where I wish to stay
Quietly listening, to the sounds
Of the water, from the bay
