Chicks Dixie Storm Out On The Sea lyrics

As a girl I watched the sailing ships
Like white birds on the sea
Their sails were wings that rode the wind
My heart longed to be free
I saw you standing by the sea
The beach was dark as death
But your hand was warm against my face
Your kiss was my life`s breath

And lovin` you`s like drowning in a storm out on the sea
Put your arms around me darling
Now and rescue me
And lovin` you`s like drowning and I feel so all alone
Put your arms around me
And I`ll never sail alone

You never said you`d stay with me
I never tied your hands
The way some frightened women do to keep their love on land
Where they can walk dry-footed
And never fear the tide
Or the moon upon the water
In their lover`s arms they hide

The rain upon my body beat me down upon the sand
And the clouds came low and lonely
Loke lost sailors seeking land
Soon I learned that lovin` you means drowning in the sea
And you turned your back on me
