Sam Roberts - Mystified, Heavy lyrics

rate me

Ooh, it's got me mystified, heavy now Deep down to my soul You try to keep the wheel steady now Easy as she goes I can hear on the wind a tale that needs to be told again The horizon bends at either end and the sea can't tell a foe from a friend I know it was only a dream As delicate as a dragonfly wing I was never satisfied with any life 'til she called my name The air on the high ground was rarefied, every day the same And old fears were always near but when we set sail they disappeared There are those who fear the deep but the world don't wait when your faith won't leap And I know it was only a dream As delicate as a dragonfly wing Then we watched as the Southern Cross led the sailors home, constellation borne We set sail in a heavy gale and to the sea many of us thrown And there were times when my courage failed but I never bowed to the storm Whatever path you choose to walk, in the end, you walk alone Ooh, it's got me mystified heavy now Tongue-tied to the anchor chain You try to keep your hand steady now But it slips again And landfall surprised us all and she broke on the rocks like a china doll You can hear the siren call for the last dance at Poseidon's Ball I know it was only a dream As delicate a dragonfly wing I hope it was only a dream As delicate as a dragonfly wing
