lyrics

It's cold out on the foreshore - though the storm has passed
The days are getting longer but the light's still fading fast
The moon calls on the wind - to chase the clouds away
I wait above the strandline to escape the drifting spray

The moon breaks clear and rising - lights the mountainside
An hour yet to go before the highest Easter tide
The flotsam and the jetsam - dancing on the swell
Heavy with the promise of the many tales to tell

I am the ocean wave - the wind over the sea
Out in the sound - I'm homeward bound - the salmon swimming free
I am the eagle - watching from the gloom
I've chased the wind but who can tell the ages of the moon

I tried to read the signals but the lights have disappeared
I don't know what I'm searching for or if I'll find it here
Could there be inspiration - in the foaming surge
Or might I wait the long night through for something to emerge?

I am the ocean wave - the wind over the sea
Out in the sound - I'm homeward bound - the salmon swimming free
I am the eagle - watching from the gloom
I've chased the wind but who can tell the ages of the moon
