[Verse 1]
I say “The sea.”
“What do we do at the sea?”
She says, “I have no idea.”
I say, “No ideas?”
[Pre-Chorus 1]
She says, “Let’s look at the sea.”
“The waves rolling in and out.”
[Chorus 1]
Doing nothing,
Just watching the sea.
Time passes,
Just the two of us.
[Verse 2]
With a blank mind,
Thinking of nothing,
Staying still,
Not moving.
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Time flows slowly and gently,
Listening to the sound of the waves.
[Chorus 2]
Doing nothing,
Just watching the sea.
Time passes,
Just the two of us.
[Instrumental Solo]
[Verse 3]
Feeling your warmth
Just having you beside me,
I don’t need anything else,
Time melting away.
[Pre-Chorus 3]
I wish time would stop,
Like this forever, at the sea.
[Chorus 3]
Doing nothing,
Just watching the sea.
Time passes,
Just the two of us.
[Bridge]
A faint voice from far away,
“How long are you going to sleep?”
“There’s no point in coming to the library.”
And there was his smiling face.
[Final Chorus 3]
Doing nothing,
Just watching the sea.
Time passes,
Just the two of us.
[Instrumental Solo]
