Sudden Waves Songtext
von June Tabor

There are waves, there are waves
Sudden waves break over me
There are waves, sudden waves over me
There are days when the way
That I want is not to be
And I am lost

There are days, broken days
When the gales we sail have blown
There are waves, sudden waves over me
And the sea carries me
On a course that′s not my own
And I am alone


There are storms, sudden storms
When the form of life is lost
There are waves, sudden waves over me
And it's chance, not design
Makes the line my life has crossed
And I may drown

There are bays, peaceful bays
In the harbor of your hand
Where the waves, sudden waves cannot reach
There are days when the ways
Of your words can make dry land
And I can stay

There are bays, peaceful bays
In the harbor of your hand
Where the waves, sudden waves cannot reach
There are days when the ways
Of your words can make dry land
And I can stay
