I dream of a seabird
As it opens it wings
to the gale
And as it soars o’er
the island
And when the dark
night falls
And the grey mists
surround me
My heart is a small
boat
Your love is it’s sea
(chorus)
And I’ll sing of all the love I have for you
And I’ll bear with
all the pain you want me to
For which ever way we
may go
And no matter what
winds may blow
It’s our nature that
binds your heart to me
Oh my hope
is for freedom
And it
rises and falls over time
And as I
sail on the ocean
I have one
warm secret inside
And when
the west winds blow
And the
white waves are foaming
My heart
is a small boat
Your smile
is the shore
(chorus)
