I was hoping to be found alive
In a pool of lies and an ocean of tears
I was looking for a ship, ahoy
I was waiting, bottom line, for a miracle, oh, oh

All I hope is that when they find me
I have the good sense to say a prayer
For all that is dear to me
I hope I still find them waiting there

You know I know that I should be grateful
It′s not enough and no reason at all
It's only right to reveal my feelings
And even the best at times get bored

I was floating for quite a while
With my fingers resting in the deep blue sea
I was watching the spin drift dancing
Flowin′ away to forever from me

I could have stayed forever
And Sunday, waiting for something or even someone
I could've watched the whole world pass me
Just for the sake of being reasonable

I was hoping to be found alive
In a pool of lies and an ocean of tears
I was looking for a ship, ahoy
I was waiting, bottom line, for a miracle

All I hope is that when they find me
I have the good sense to say a prayer
For all that is dear to me
I hope I still find them waiting there

You know I know that I should be grateful
It's not enough and no reason at all
It′s only right to reveal my feelings
And even the best at times get bored

I could have stayed forever
And Sunday, waiting for something or even someone
I could′ve watched the whole world pass me
Just for the sake of being reasonable
