I watched from the bay as her small boat came slowly through the stormy water. – Through the storm we reach the shore
She was rowing as strong as she could, but time passed slowly. – You give it all but I want more, and I’m waiting for you
I struggled against the ties around my arms, my bruised body about to give way. – My hands are tied, my body bruised
I was tied to the cold stone sacrifical slab. – On a bed of nails she makes me wait
My captors had taken away everything, even my dignity. – You’ve got me with, nothing to win, and nothing left to lose.
I saw her cringe when she saw what my captors had done to me. – See the thorn twist in your side
I wasn’t going to live much longer without her help, but unless she got here soon, I wouldn’t make it anyway. – I can’t live, with or without you
