Now as the early light is catching the folds |
|
Black lace and satin wrapped, wrapped up against her face |
|
She turns her frozen steps that break the frost and cold |
|
Beyond the misty bay, still sleeping to the east |
|
"Too many miles", she hears the seabirds call |
|
Her captain's ship, she waits for wind and sail |
|
Below the breaking point the tide will ebb and fall |
|
The storm is silent now, as silent as the dawn |
|
Above the rocks and cliffs she watches all the while |
|
She waits for distant sails that never will return |
|
"Too many miles", she hears the seabirds call |
|
Her captain's ship, she waits for wind and sail |
|
Below the breaking point the tide will ebb and fall |
|
The storm is silent now, as silent as the dawn |
|
"Too many miles", she hears the seabirds call |
|
Her captain's ship, she waits for wind and sail |
