Lyrics

A storm front came in, it was bringing bad weather,
With thick clouds of black that would darken the skies,
Out of our fears then we clung close together,
We saw what we chose in the other one’s eyes!
We both fought each other, as a man fights the ocean
We could not change ourselves and could not change the tide
It was fear and not love that was our true emotion
We locked down our truths and we suffered inside!

FAREWELL, FAREWELL! YOU SWEET PRECIOUS DARLIN'!
LET THE FERRY BOAT CARRY YOU WELL OUT TO SEA!
YOU NEVER COULD LOVE THE MAN HERE BEFORE YOU,
BUT SUCH COULD BE SAID OF THE SAME THING FOR ME!

We endured what we could of the rows and the rages,
My soul was a lion, your heart was a lamb,
You prayed that my spirit would settle with ages
I prayed you would love me for all that I am!
I saw what I wanted, you saw what you needed,
We invested our laughter, our love and our tears,
If wishes were whispered they seldom were heeded,
Til at last when you said you had wasted your years!

We sailed half a lifetime though harsh words spoken
We healed as we could but were still badly scarred
I tried at the last to repair what was broken
And you would have stayed had I not tried so hard
I endeavored to save what I could in the ending,
I'd never believe that our friendship was through,
I wanted your interest without false pretending,
But interest of wealth was all I was to you!
