She Will Wait

Well the storm raised up on the seventh day
And the wind it stole my breath away
And it took from me a crew of five
Oh six old friends only one alive

And the screams it made were a fearful sound
Yes I clung to life as the ship went down
Until one thing moved to fill my mind
Oh the thoughts of the girl that I left behind

Until this world stops turning
And my eyes stop learning
And my mind stops burning
She will wait for me by the rolling sea

Well we danced our way to this life of ours
Through our favorite streets and the fields of flowers
And i thought of her on the distant shore
Now I prayed she'd wait forever more

Cause now I danced with the sea in this pitch and roll
While she danced in my mind and my hopeful soul
And for as long as she'd wait for me
I will paddle on with the rolling sea

Until this world stops turning
And my eyes stop learning
'Till my mind stops burning
She will wait for me by the rolling sea

On the ninth day bitter winds died down
And flocks of dear float around
And I swear that my friends call to me
From the walks of a bar on fiddler's green

If I ever make it home again
I'll remember my brave crew and friends
And with the girl who dances there with me
You won't take my life now you rolling sea

Until this world stops turning
And my eyes stop learning
'Till my mind stops burning
She will wait for me by the rolling sea

She will wait for me by the rolling sea
She will wait for me by the rolling sea
