Lyrics Harbour - Eleanor McEvoy

Harbour

The wind blows and hail storms
Are drenching these old clothes
I’m frozen and failing to see
Why everyone’s out
Just to knock you and hurt you
I’m aching from just trying to be
Will you guard me?
Never let them harm me?
Reach your arms around me?
Will you be a harbour?
At my shoulder
Always watching over
Try to hold me closer
Shelter me and shield me from the world
From the world
My faith has been fractured
By outlaws and actors
And others who’ve passed through my door
I’m hoping what’s broken
Can someday be mended
I’m open to offers or cures
Will you guard me?
Never let them harm me?
Reach your arms around me?
Will you be a harbour?
At my shoulder
Always watching over
Try to hold me closer
Shelter me and shield me from the world
From the world
These hail storms… are so cold…
Will you guard me?
Never let them harm me?
Reach your arms around me?
Will you be a harbour?
At my shoulder
Always watching over
Try to hold me closer
Shelter me and shield me from the world
From the world
I harbour a hope as the rain soaks my coat
There’s room in your harbour for me
