cd: Little Bits of Truth
track 2: Higher Power
There’s a wind blowing up behind us, those rogues can’t catch or find us
Our barque cuts through the ocean waves like a sword through a summer flower
I meant every word I told her, she’s the angel on my shoulder
I’ll return to the one I love with the help of a higher power
We sailed from St. Johns in the springtime to dangerous waters she knew
She whispered my love will surround you until you sail back into view
I’ve lived a life taking chances, the sea’s hardened lessons I’ve learned
I put young and reckless behind me when I pledged to her my return
Chorus
In Barbary they primed to attack us for bounty we held in our hold
Our captain said we will out sail them, no bloodshed will need to unfold
I told her that I’d not be careless, I’d avoid all the risks of my youth
When she’s in my arms come the morrow she’ll know that I spoke the truth
Chorus
Dulahan Music
