The Safety of Home

Goodbye Elizabeth fair In a heartbeat you know I'll be leaving I'll be gone with the cold winter's air There's no need for lament or for grieving I'll walk down through the streets where we met, Where we first knew that life had a meaning Where we kissed as the crimson sun set Where we made the first memory that we would both never forget
And the sea will roll The tides they will ebb and they'll flow When the cold winds blow We'll return to the safety of home
I'll look back as I leave home behind As I'm sailing out over the water I will picture your smile in my mind I will picture our son and our daughter And if dark clouds surround me at night If the seas leave me broken and blinded You will burn like a beacon so bright You will guide me home safely, you'll bring me back into the light
And the sea will roll The tides they will ebb and they'll flow When the cold winds blow We'll return to the safety of home
And the sea will roll The tides they will ebb and they'll flow When the cold winds blow We'll return to the safety of home
And I'll pray this tempest carries me home
