Words & Music By

Nick Granato



I can identify with the ocean,

Constantly changing, always in motion,

At times I find myself just rolling

With nothing to hold me back

No nothing can hold me back

Sometimes I feel just like an island,

Standing alone in the middle of silence,

Feeling so safe still surrounded by violence

With nothing to hold them back

No nothing can hold them back

I feel the wind and the waves all around me,

I hear them breaking on the shore,

I see the lighthouse in the harbor,

Calling me to her port, oh

Just calling me to her port…

Sailing my waters, friends & strangers… 

Sharing pleasures, daring dangers,

Some drift off and some throw anchor,

With nothing to hold them back

No nothing can hold them back

But on my horizon the sun is rising,

Warming my waves, reflecting the skies,

Another day to reach and find

With nothing to hold me back,

No nothing can hold me back…

Still I can feel the current changing,

Pulling me from every side,

I can sense the deep impressions,

That I've left behind

From my raging tide,

Yes I can identify with the ocean,

Always changing like my emotions

Ever restless, ever flowing

With nothing to hold me back

No nothing can hold me back

With nothing to hold me back

No nothing can hold me…
