The Blanket of Night |
| Paper cup of a boat |
| Heaving chest of the sea |
| Carry both of us |
| Carry her |
| Carry me |
| From the place we were born |
| To the land of the free |
| Carry both of us |
| Carry her |
| Carry me |
| The ocean |
| That bares us from our home |
| Could save us |
| Or take us for its own |
| The danger |
| That life should lead us here |
| My angel |
| Could I have steered us clear? |
| Gone the light from her eyes |
| With the lives that we made |
| Just the two of us |
| In the night |
| On the waves |
| Moving silent her lips |
| By the moon’s only light |
| Sewing silver prayers |
| In the blanket of night |
| The ocean |
| That bares us from our home |
| Could save us |
| Or take us for its own |
| The danger |
| That life should lead us here |
| My angel |
| Could I have steered us clear? |
| Paper cup of a boat |
| Heaving chest of the sea |
| Carry both of us or |
| Swallow her |
| Swallow me |
