The Tides of Life
Like a boat afloat at sea
Cracking against the strain
No sail, nor stable rudder
Fighting another rain
Lost and alone, drifting away
Into the endless blue
Never knowing where I'm going
Nor what I'm going to do
The sea, we know is mighty
Playing with you as she may
Tossing you aground!
Then releasing you next day
Testing you with foul storms
And tearing down your sails
Battering your downright soul
With a wind that howls and wails
A tempest brews beneath the shine
Of everlasting blue
On and on my boat will ride
Until my dreams come true
