pocket full of shells all you wanted to see was the smile on my face as you were looking right into my eyes talking about things i really didn't want to know about you told me about bed of roses but you liked to lay among the thorns, didn't you? and we were walking along the shore sitting there and watching the deep blue sea as the stars showed up at night and we had collected a pocket full of shells that broke and fell to a thousand pieces when we fought and turned the pocket upside down and stepped on the white china shells but we kept on sitting at the midnight shore and you were looking right into my eyes i guess you saw roses in full bloom before i closed my eyes and showed you all my thorns we unlocked a chest for all that shells in the pocket now we have to unlock a casket and still we are watching the night's dark shore waves rolling, changing, bearing dreams and fears i wished i could tell you but i think you already know maybe you knew it from the start when we collected, joyfully, a pocket full of shells
