Storm out on the sea Song Lyrics
Storm out on the sea by Dixie Chicks Written by Mary Neal Northcut and Robin Lynn MacyAs a girl I watched the sailing ships Like white birds on the sea Their sails were wings that rode the wind And my heart longed to be free I saw you standing by the sea The beach was dark as death But your hand was warm against my face Your kiss was my life's breathAnd lovin' you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea Put your arms around me darling now and rescue me And lovin' you's like drowning and I feel so far from home Put your arms around me and I'll never sail aloneYou never said you'd stay with me I never tied your hands The way some frightened women do To keep their love on land Where they can walk dry-footed And never fear the tide Or the moon upon the water In their lover's arms they hideAnd lovin' you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea Put your arms around me darling now and rescue me And lovin' you's like drowning and I feel so far from home Put your arms around me and I'll never sail aloneWell the rain upon my body beat me down upon the sand And the clouds came rowin' lonely Like lost sailors seeking land Soon I learned that lovin' you means drowning in the sea When you closed your arms against me And you turned your back on meAnd lovin' you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea Put your arms around me darling now and rescue me And lovin' you's like drowning and I feel so far from home Put your arms around me and I'll never sail aloneAnd lovin' you's like drowning in a storm out on the sea Put your arms around me darling now and rescue me And lovin' you's like drowning and I feel so far from home Put your arms around me and I'll never sail aloneWhoa, put your arms around me and I'll never sail alone
