Writer's Note: This song is by Sam Harris, the B-side of his single "I'd Do it All Again" (yes, on a real 45. Gasp). It is the song Duet is based off of, although it is not really a duet. Still, the words grabbed me, and I love the melody - just wish there was some way to put it up so you could actually hear it! But here it is.
You've been caught in a storm
You've been battered and torn
Your survival will mean your revival.
And when I saw your flag
It was only just a rag
And the boat that you were sailing on
Was leaving.
It's a cold, bitter time
That's stolen your pride
You're the daughter of violent waters
And when I took your hand
You were a thousand miles from land
And the world that you were living in
Was sinking.
Oh, come,
You've been down so long
The current pulls so strong
This life that you've been leading.
Oh, please,
Take this love from me
It's stronger than the sea
This love that you've been needing.
Have I reached your heart in time
To stop the bleeding?
Time has lead you away
From the bright side of day
Death will follow, your life is hollow
Say goodbye to the sea
Share this love inside of me
And the warmth that it will bring will last
Forever
Oh, come,
You've been down so long
The current pulls so strong
This life that you've been leading.
Oh, please,
Take this love from me
It's stronger than the sea
This love that you've been needing.
Have I reached your heart in time
To stop the bleeding?
