Learning to Crawl (partial lyrics)

 

The salt on her lips

was the salt of her tears

as the wind blew the sand in her eyes.

She tasted the death

that sat rich in the storm

and she read in the waves his demise.

As she stood by the bay,

well she cursed at the night

while the mighty Nor’easter churned

The sting of the rain

 snapped her young heart to pieces

She thought he would never return.

 

Well the wind and the waves

were the call he had heard

As he walked with her down by the bay

The road he would travel

washed into the sea

and was leading his dear heart astray

The kisses he gave her

were laden with love

but his face was caressing the wind.

He thought he could win her

by braving the sea

she’d be coaxed into marrying him.

 

Chorus:

We fly from love, ‘til we start to crawl

Like rain drops to the earth

to the river flowing home.’

Behind our nights, the dawn will call

The patient power of love brooks the squall. . . .
