Storm Shanty

Hold on for hold on for the dawn
Hold on for hold on for the dawn
Hold on for hold on for the dawn

Mist on the mountain and wind on the water
The fisherman’s daughter she sings softly to me
Clouds hide the wide sky, I see in my mind’s eye
The ghosts of the sailors, lost at sea

Home in the harbour i gaze at the breakers
The givers and takers assaulting the shore
Light the storm lanterns guide home the phantoms
All is forgiven wander no more

Though youth tries to hold you like a lover unfold you
Its fingers have withered and weakened with time
Thought midnight defies you it cannot deny you
We all have grown older without even trying

Lost in your lamplight entranced by your second sight
The veil here is thinner than ever before
And you sing your spell song what can I but follow on
