lyrics

turning all the freighters in the harbor
cause they can't turn on their own
turn them round and send them back to sea
toward their company and homes
feels good knowing that their bows point
in directions they will need to go.
better now but when you least expect it
your mind drifts to long ago.

years before your eyes were hooked by hers
a blue that filled you to the core
daugher's laughter bouncing round the room
you thought you'd never want for more.
often you'd put out to sea for weeks
because you had to pay the bills.
killed you to be away and it was one of those times
that they were killed.

car accident:
angels are spent

broken like a lightbulb dropped from a great height
yet wholly by yourself.
the bible nor the bottle seem to help you so you
leave them on the shelf.
lost at sea till waiting in the harbor before going out again.
watching tiny tugboats turning giant ships your heart begins beating.

get behind the wheel:
change the way you feel.

tugboat turn me round and send me back to where
i once belonged.
keep me from sinking like a stone.

i've lost something but i'm still alive
and now i need to carry on.
turn me away from being alone.

turn me round.

ooooohhhhoooohoooohoooohoooooooohhhhhhh
