Sailing Through The Storm Lyrics
I’m sailing through the storm
Tryna find somewhere warm
Tryna get as far away
From myself as I can
My conscience is awake
I’ve made many mistakes
I know that it’s no excuse
But I am just a man
I’m sailing away from you
I tried my best to be true
But it just wasn’t to be
I hope you understand
All I’ve got left is this boat
As long as she stays afloat
I’ll make it across the sea
And once again feel dry land
Maybe the storm’s a sign
Maybe I’m wrong this time
Maybe I should have stayed
I can’t help but remember
Those times we were together
And in your arms I laid
I’m in desp’rate need of sleep
The boat shudders and creaks
But soon I’ll find rest and peace
I hope that you can too
I’ve been tossed and turned
I’ve been hurt and burned
But no matter what I’ve done
I know I’ll make it through
What went down in the flood
Has long gone and been lost
So Senoretta, adios
I hope you make it through too
Paul Robert Thomas
