"Storm Out On The Sea"

As a girl I watched the sailing ships Like white birds
on the sea Their sails were wings that rode the wind
My heart longed to be free I saw you standing by the
sea But your hand was warm against my face The beach
was dark as death Your kiss was my life's breath And
lovin' you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea
Put your arms around me darling Now and rescue me
And lovin' you's like drowning and I feel so all alone
Put your arms around me You never said you'd stay with
me And I'll never sail alone I never tied your hands
Where they can walk dry-footed The way some frightened
women do to keep their love on land In their lover's
arms they hide And never fear the tide Or the moon
upon the water Loke lost sailors seeking land And
the clouds came low and lonely The rain upon my body
beat me down upon the sand Soon I learned that lovin'
you means drowning in the sea And you turned your back on me
