Prevailing Winds

from The Neon Grotto by The Academy Blues Project

lyrics

When the waves unrest offers no quarter
I will be the rock in your breakwater
Prevailing winds, come over me
Should you find yourself adrift on the sea
Cling to my voice and this memory
Prevailing winds, come over me

Prevailing winds, come over me
Prevailing winds, come over me
If the shifting tides of which you opine
And safe harbor proves too hard to find
We’ll sail by the tailwind with our backs to the storm
And pray safe return
How I yearn for the soft oscillation of a steady beacon

Prevailing winds, come over me
Prevailing winds, come over me
A distant foghorn blows its forlorn call
But the wind blows higher
Put forth by this mighty squall
The waves churn as tidal changes carry them and draw the sea in

Lost in the sound
In sight of an island
Wind whistling down
Like the call of the siren
