about
Saltwater is a song about the great mystery. When we choose to look within ourselves and live deeply, the journey that unfolds is equal parts beautiful and terrifying. May this song be a friend to you as you walk your own path of mystery.
lyrics
& can you, can you, can you sense it
the fire that's burning bright in me
a spell that i never cast, cobalt blue aching glass and the ocean is calling me
like a ghost on a full moon at midnight, all the circumstances line up, did the timelines cross was it just a dream
like a play i haven't the guts to write
like a stage but the stakes are real tonight to sleep perchance to travel in a dream
& can you, can you can you sense it
the fire that's burning bright in me
a spell that i never cast, a flame, but it never lasts and the ocean is calling me
like a flashlight under the covers
like the salty pull of the water
like a child in the dark of night what do you believe
like a shadow hint of destiny
like a quest but you never quite see
what it is before you come up out of the dream
like a locket full of promise
like the crossroads, but out of focus
like a shedding skin like a mystery
like your secrets whispered on a wind
how did the wind get to know them
you try to grasp but there's nothing in your hand
& can you, can you, can you sense it
the fire that's burning bright in me
a spell that i never cast, cobalt blue aching glass and the ocean is calling me and the saltwater pull is all i feel and the saltwater pull is all i feel and the saltwater pull is all i feel
the fire that's burning bright in me
a spell that i never cast, cobalt blue aching glass and the ocean is calling me
like a ghost on a full moon at midnight, all the circumstances line up, did the timelines cross was it just a dream
like a play i haven't the guts to write
like a stage but the stakes are real tonight to sleep perchance to travel in a dream
& can you, can you can you sense it
the fire that's burning bright in me
a spell that i never cast, a flame, but it never lasts and the ocean is calling me
like a flashlight under the covers
like the salty pull of the water
like a child in the dark of night what do you believe
like a shadow hint of destiny
like a quest but you never quite see
what it is before you come up out of the dream
like a locket full of promise
like the crossroads, but out of focus
like a shedding skin like a mystery
like your secrets whispered on a wind
how did the wind get to know them
you try to grasp but there's nothing in your hand
& can you, can you, can you sense it
the fire that's burning bright in me
a spell that i never cast, cobalt blue aching glass and the ocean is calling me and the saltwater pull is all i feel and the saltwater pull is all i feel and the saltwater pull is all i feel

about
rorie kelly New York
rorie kelly is on a quest to bring her songs to ears around the world through the cunning use of the internet and a small
blue Toyota with over 200,000 miles on it.
rorie writes songs that are melodic and catchy but more thoughtful and introspective than the average pop tune. Her vocals are bigger than you would expect out of her small body and her guitar playing is powerful and percussive.
