Dry Land

Lyrics

Lost your way on the sea of life

High Pressures turned to vice

Dark clouds are spinning round

Flooded vessel will take you down

 

Set sail under sunny skies

Had bright stars to be the guide

So quick the day turns to grey

Veered off course and lose the way

 

Tossed by waves and a screaming wind

It’s a hand the ocean always wins

A sturdy ship is easy over-turned

Helmed by the mariner unlearned

 

BORN a boy on dry land

Sailed off to be a man

Went searching for your home

But you ended up all alone

 

Sailed past the signs you missed

The feathered trail of Icaurus

So High you touched the sun

Melted wings you’ve come undone

 

Calls of distress have gone unheard

Voice drowned with words you slurred

Frigid waters floating without a raft

The bottoms deep; now you’re sinking fast

 

BORN a boy on dry land

Sailed off to be a man

Went searching for your home

But you ended up all alone

 

But a willing sailor has the courage to fight

Follows his steps to survive the night

Trusts in wisdom; replaces the fear

Finds a higher power; the steady hand to steer…

 

 

BORN a BOY on dry land

Sailed off to be a man

Went searching for your home

You’ll never find it all alone

 

Born a BOY became a MAN

Sailed a storm, lost sight of land

Fought hard to get back home

Never would have made it alone………..
