Leaving The Harbor Lyrics

When you are leaving the harbor

Do you cry out to the shore?

Do you bless the wave of the ocean

Do you call your vessel home?

And as you leave the safest harbor

Do you wonder where you'll go?

When you feel your bough is breaking

Do you call that harbor home?

When you sing the lullabye

Do you sing it for the song?

Or do you love the way it slides

Like velvet 'cross your tongue?

And as you sing the lullabye

Do you savor every line?

Or do they flow as one with your heartbeat

Your voice and your mind?

If you turn the light out in the hallway

Will your shadow lose its way?

Or do we share these shadows in the darkness

And they move from place to place?

And we could share a shadow in the darkness

Shadows have no face

But should you sell our soul to the darkness

Can you face the light of day?

'Cause you are leaving the harbor

Do you cry out to the shore?

Oh, do you bless the wave of the ocean?

Do you call your vessel home?

Oh, do you bless the wave of the ocean?

Do you call your vessel home?
