George Donaldson - Safe in the Harbour Lyrics

Font:      
Align:    
  • And felt the horizon stir deep in your soul
  • Watched the wake of a steamer as it cut through blue water
  • Been gripped by a fever you just can’t control
  • To throw off the shackles to fly with the seagulls
  • To where green waves tumble over driving sea wind
  • Or to lie on the decking on a warm summer’s evening
  • Watch the red sun fall burning, beneath the earth’s rim
  • Chorus
  • To every sailor, comes time to drop anchor
  • Haul in the sails, and make the lines fast
  • You deep water dreamer, your journey is over
  • You’re safe in the harbour at last
  • Safe in the harbour at last
  • Some men are sailors, but most are just dreamers
  • Held fast by the anchors they forge in their minds
  • In their hearts know they’ll never sail over deep water
  • To search for a treasure they’re afraid they won’t find
  • So in sheltered harbours, they cling to their anchors
  • Bank down their boilers and shut down their steam
  • And wait for the sailors to return with their treasures
  • That will fan the dull embers and fire up their dreams
  • Chorus
  • Some men are schemers who laugh at the dreamers
  • Take the gold from the sailors and turn it to dross
  • They’re men in a prison, they’re men without vision
  • Whose only horizon is profit and loss.
  • So when storm clouds come sailing across your blue ocean
  • Hold fast to your dreaming for all that you’re worth
  • For as long as there’s dreamers, there will always be sailors
  • Bringing back their bright treasures from corners of earth
  • Chorus
  • Safe in the harbour at last
