You made it out ‘til summertime I made it out ‘til June But now the storm it catches up There’s nothing left to do But hold on to the ropes my love Close your eyes again The light’s too far away to see Across the misty land You felt like steering deeper out I felt like dashing in By now it’s much too late to leave The ropes are wearing thin I never prayed so hard for rain While slamming on the keel I felt the water rushing in The sense of something real And I will brave this storm for you Until the sheer strake brakes When dark sets in and summer fades We’ll look for something new And I will brave this storm for you Until the sheer strake brakes When dark sets in and summer fades We’ll look for something new
In bodies of wood We’ll conquer the flood No fear of the tides We cut loose and cast off In bodies of wood We’ll conquer the flood No fear of the tides We cut loose and cast off In bodies of wood We’ll conquer the flood No fear of the tides We cut loose and cast off In bodies of wood We’ll conquer the flood No fear of the tides We cut loose and cast off In bodies of wood We’ll conquer the flood No fear of the tides We cut loose and cast off In bodies of wood We’ll conquer the flood No fear of the tides We cut loose and cast off
Did you see it happen It was right in front of your eyes I tried to save it all for you And you still look surprised I look like a battlefield I’m swept from side to side Cave in or dig a deeper hole A place where I can hide
Going down with the strength of the tides Wasn’t your plan, I know it never was But fixing holes the size of the ship Isn’t an option when you’ve never lost So when the waves started eating the deck I kinda liked it, I must admit For what it’s worth, this boat was never enough To hold the both of us, as it did
And I will build a ship for you I will build a ship for you I will build a ship for you We’ll sail right out of town
