Safe At Anchor
Kate Wolf
nd Fret Here I stand alone again reaching out across the room Quietly the sun’s gone down and sailors seek the harbour Look at us sailing in decks awash but still afloat And now the wind’s come up to rock us on the water Riding out the storm like a ship safe at anchor Waiting out the long voyage ’round the Cape of Hope we’ll take her INTERLUDE: In the calm before the storm sunny days and smoother waters When we hit the seventh wave we found a line and caught her Look into my eyes let me see where you’ve been sailing Like you I’ve felt the storm and heard the wild waves wailing Riding out the storm like a ship safe at anchor Waiting out the long voyage ’round the Cape of Hope we’ll take her Instrumental: Steer clear of the shore the coast is rough and rocky It’s the deepest channel that runs most true the brightest stars that mark her Steady as she goes there’s no turning back the sailors With the ship on course and the sea wind fair there’s no need to fail her Riding out the storm like a ship safe at anchor Waiting out the long voyage ’round the Cape of Hope we’ll take her Instrumental: Riding out the storm like a ship safe at anchor Waiting out the long voyage ’round the Cape of Hope we’ll take her
