first
you cut the sails and then
you let the howlin' north winds blow.
just so you can climb the mast and point out
everything i don't know.
clara
the rains are rolling in
and i can see your colours run.
next
you plant the seed in solid ground
just to watch it die.
the life fostered in the morning sun
is now dead and it is gone.
clara
the lights are shining through
and i can't see for the sun.
third
you show me the south skies
but they too do turn to day.
even though i have seen that they're out there
these goddam ships are stuck at bay.
clara
the sky is fallin' down
and soon you'll see your day is done.
fourth
you'll call all these head gusts
so these wheels can't take me home.
so frightened i will turn on my heels
so scared of being alone.
clara
at first only a thought
these are the four winds of my mind.
you say when the tide goes out
you say when the tide goes out
you'll stay when the tides go out
you say when the tide goes out
and i guess i think the same.
