Clear Water

歌詞

I want clear water from here to the horizon I want some calm seas for the journey still ahead Fair weather as we head for the skyline Clear sky in the morning and every sunset red I want clear water as we sail out to the head All I want to hear is the ripple from the bow Let us be at ease now and know our true position Like a compass to the star, like a team hooked to the plough And as for all the history, best it's left unwritten Few would believe if we told all we have seen Comedy and tragedy have come along unbidden They are the port and starboard that we sail in between I want clear water for each new destination And if the storm should break, we will take it in our stride We rode out the tempest when the clouded stars were hidden And the rising of the moon proved to be a fickle guide And if we hear the timbers creak, we'll be give and take Voices from outside, we know our craft is strong As long as we can speak without raising our voices The music of the storm is in the guardian of the song At night upon the deck I want to feel the salty spray Like warm tears on my face for the passing of the day And I watch the wheeling star 'til the light breaks in the east May the journey never end, let us be at peace I want clear water from here to the horizon Maybe scarred and feathered, but who'd say we were wrong The journey not the goal was the only thing that mattered While the wounds you thought had healed can still be opened by a song I want clear water from here to the horizon I want some calm seas for the journey still ahead Fair weather as we head for the skyline Clear sky in the morning and every sunset red A clear sky in the morning and every sunset red
