We watch the wind and set the sail
But save ourselves when all omens point to fail
'Cause it's clear that I need better skill in steering
And I'll set my house in order now and wait upon the will
Though I saw it splinter, I keep looking out to sea
Though I grieve and I believe I feel it truly
We watch the wind and set the sail
But save ourselves when all omens point to fail
So consider me a widow, boys, and I have told you why
And if I tell the truth then I won't have to tell you this
To the very area where I did see the thing go down
So I walk the walk and wait with watchful eye out to the sky
We watch the wind and set the sail
But save ourselves when all omens point to fail
But I knew that ship was empty by the time it hit the rocks
'Cause we could not hold on when fate became unruly
Like a dog with little sense, I keep returning
That line is the horizon
That line is the horizon
Looking for a kind of vessel I have never found
That line is the horizon
Does the weather say a better day is nearing?
As if there's something at the site I should be learning
