These Winds

Helena's hollow

She lives in a sail

Drift on a promise

Of delicate details

Her ark is a shipwrecked

Touch till she breathes

Love's whisper passing

And laying down reeds

Caroline the shy girl

Made only of air

Breathlessly singing

On a wing and a prayer

Secrets that shadow

Lie in the deep

Carried along

And laid down to sleep

These winds

And cold, dark rain

Blows, breaks

And remains

These winds

And cold, dark rain

Blows, breaks

And remains

Josephine's beauty

She hides with a veil

Speaks reassuring

But her voice is frail

Dancing covertly

Afraid we might fall

Sweep me away

And feel nothing at all

These winds

And cold, dark rain

Blows, breaks

And remains

These winds

And cold, dark rain

Blows, breaks

And remains

These winds

And cold, dark rain

Blows, breaks

And remains

These winds

And cold, dark rain

Blows, breaks

And remains
