Ready for the Storm |
| The waves crash in and the tide pulls out |
| It’s an angry sea but there is no doubt |
| That the lighthouse will keep shining in the night |
| To warn the lonely sailor |
| The lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold |
| Through the sailor’s bones, to the sailor’s soul |
| 'Till there’s nothing left that he can hold |
| Except the roaring ocean |
| But I am ready for the storm, yes oh ready I’m |
| I’m ready for the storm, I’m ready for the storm |
| Give me mercy for my dreams, 'cause every confrontaion |
| Seems to tell me what it really means to be a lonely sailor |
| But when the sky begins to clear and the sun it melts away my fear |
| I cry a silent, weary tear at those that mean to love me And I am ready for the storm, yes oh ready I’m |
| I’m ready for the storm, I’m ready for the storm |
| Distance it is no real friend, and time will take its time |
| And you will find that in the end it brings you near a lonely sailor |
| But when you take me by your side, you love me warm, you love me And I should’ve realized I had no reason to be frightened |
| And I am ready for the storm, yes oh ready I’m |
| I’m ready for the storm, I’m ready for the storm (x2 |
