Don't dress for occasion,
Just come as you are.
I make no distinction
Between make up and 'flaw'.
Don't fear apprehension,
Just give me your hand;
Your deep comprehension
Of all that I am
And...
Take me sailing
(Deep sound, sure bound),
Take me sailing
(Let's see the place that we land)
Near away
(A point on the chart of your star)
Near away.
I don't want your attention,
Just to know that you are.
I don't seek your affection,
Just your balm to my scars.
Just give me a moment,
The lifetime I need.
To give me condonement
For the the reflection I see
And...
Take me sailing
(Deep sound, sure bound),
Take me sailing
(Let's see the place that we land)
Near away
(Your three winds deflecting, reflecting, protecting)
Near away
(Out of the depths of the shallows that drown us)
Take me sailing
(Deep sound, sure bound),
Take me sailing
(Let's see the place that we land)
Near away
(A point on the chart of your star)
Near away.

Falling

From the moment you awake,
It's a feeling you just can't shake.
Its echo is calling;
Falling.
As the wood obscures the trees
And the guiding hand behind sets you free.
You stumble; stalling;
Falling.
Like a leaf on the wind,
Unsure what the journey brings;
Free falling, blown free
Find a way to me.
Stood fast against the tide
Of the bitterness and rage that burns inside.
Learning, reforming;
Falling.
And when the blackness runs to hide
And you find yourself bathed within the light;
Reminded; recalling;
Not falling.
Hope restoring,
Not
Falling.
