lyrics

The gang’s all here, but it’s pretty quiet,
as I think of the moment I let in the sea.
Would they ever ‘magine I’d rather be with her,
than here in the stillness of luxury and ease.

Ah, but when the wind, it shifts,
you’d be a fool to think there was something you could do.

When I first made her, I knew I was crazy,
knew that I’d strain her, knew what I’d demand,
but when the wind caught her, she’d shoot like an arrow,
coming to life at the touch of my hand,

Ah, but when her mast come off,
what would you even try to say to me?

There’s a restless sadness that’s never too far away,
you don’t have to like it – it’s part of the deal.
If something is lost, be it love, luck, or memory,
then the best you can hope for is to know it was real.

And it’s funny who’s left standing at the end of the day –

Didn’t think it would be me.
No, I’d rather it not be me.
