Oh yes, Atlantis--I'd forgotten about that. Yeah, plot that started good and got lamer and more confusing as things went on (the people don't know what their crystals do? Except...they totally do? They should be dying, except...they're totally not?), and weird New Age stuff, but it was pretty. Especially the steampunk bits--which, now that you mention it, definitely qualify as such.

Oh, and for other songs--try "The Water Is Wide" by Charlotte Church (http://www.mediafire.com/?fnic2xd22yy)...it's a pretty song anyway ("Carrickfergus," (http://www.mediafire.com/?0zjmyyzdmyn) on a similar theme, is prettier, but it doesn't relate as well), but it's definitely about love and the ocean...most if it is more about missing a lover, but the last bit sounds perfect:
O love is handsome and love is fine And love's a jewel while it is new But when it is old, it grows so cold and fades away like morning dew...
