A Soul Lost At Sea
A Soul Lost At Sea
I’m longing for a port
To save me from the sea
Like a safe haven, or a sturdy fort
From this nightmare, I will be free
To save me from the sea
I’ll sit by a toasty fire
From this nightmare, I will be free
The ocean’s fierce and dire
I’ll sit by a toasty fire
Far away, in a cozy tavern
The ocean’s fierce and dire
For a safe place, I yearn
Far away, in a cozy tavern
I would like to be content before I die
For a safe place, I yearn
Before my trusty ship does capsize
I would like to be content before I die
Somewhere far from this deadly storm
Before my trusty ship does capsize
Before each canvas sail is torn
Somewhere far from this deadly storm
So I can be curled up and comfortable
Before each canvas sail is torn
My faded quilt’s warmth would be wonderful
So I can be curled up and comfortable
I’m longing for a port
My faded quilt’s warmth would be wonderful
Like a safe haven, or a sturdy fort
Amy Vennemeyer
