Orphans Of The Storm

verse 1 Orphans of the storm, watch them sail between the waves Orphans of the storm, say a prayer and wish the rain away Mother's milk and angel hair, holy books and bones The sirens on the shore calling them home Breakfast on the lawn in the sweet September sway Helpless and forlorn since the pills and powders passed their way Pre-Chorus Lost themselves, forever seeking, searching pole to pole While the needle and the thread stitches them whole Empty shells, only the shallow know themselves Deeper and deeper, day by day, to keep the weary world at bay No prescription for the pain only a sky of blue and grey No one to save them, sailing their sinking ships up and away Instrumental with whistling Pre-Chorus We lost ourselves, forever seeking, searching pole to pole While the needle and the thread stitches us whole again Empty shells, only the shallow know themselves Deeper and deeper, day by day, to keep the weary world at bay Raise your mast and fly away into a sky of blue and grey No one to save us, sailing our sinking ships up and away Sailing our sinking ships up and away Sailing our sinking ships up and away
