The Wailin' Jennys - Across the Sea

.




This song is from the album "Bright Morning Stars"

I see your face across the sea
You’re in the waves, surrounding me
I hear your voice call on the breeze
On this ship out on the ocean

Sailing across the sea on a big ship on the ocean
The moon is rising in the east the stars hang down around her
The bow is arrowed to the hearts of the ones we wish to come home to
But the newly lit night directs this flight singing the ocean road will guide you

I see your face across the sea
You’re in the waves, surrounding me
I hear your voice call on the breeze
On this ship out on the ocean

When I wake I’ll cast my anchor down and dive below
I’ll dive into my lover’s arms we’ll warm the ocean’s cold
Across the sea and to our home we’ll meet again so soon
You’ll be with me across the sea on this ship out on the ocean

I see your face across the sea
You’re in the waves, surrounding me
I hear your voice call on the breeze
On this ship out on the ocean

I Wonder

I wonder

Is there enough time left
For someone to learn how
I like my eggs
Or what side I sleep on
Which towel I prefer
Why I like The Wailin Jenny's
And Kurt Vonnegut
And what black walnuts mean to me

Is there enough time
To understand the way I dance
And what breaking cookies means
Or why I take so many pictures
How important running water is
And thunder
And why I worship the wind

Will anyone ever understand
What it means to stroke my hair
Or how I love the way I love
Or when to hold me when I joke
And when to step back when I cry
And vice versa

I hope so. God, I do so hope.

"Monsters Welcome Here" is the tale of Dwayne, who went out of his way to create the scariest Halloween ever. Did he go too far?
