LIFT YOUR ANCHOR
Lift your anchor; pull up your anchor
Lift your anchor
And let your spirit out to the sea
There's a new day somewhere
Sorry for making you feel like this
Sorry for asking for one last kiss
From deep inside to my fingertips
I just hate to say goodbye
There go your suitcase and leather bags
There goes the flute that said: "Home at last"
I have no choice but to welcome new beginnings
Lift your anchor; pull up your anchor
Lift your anchor
And let your spirit out to the sea
There's a new day somewhere
Lift your anchor, and let the gentle wind ride on again
One day your story reveals what will be
Maybe your home is with me
Wishing away at my table end
Walking to sermons that start at ten
Wearing a night that will never end for as long as you're not here
Patiently spying for distant ships
Balancing feet and avoiding slips
Comfort a fool for as long as she keeps waiting
Lift your anchor; pull up your anchor Lift your anchor
And let your spirit out to the sea
There's a new day somewhere
Lift your anchor, and let the gentle wind ride on again
One day your story reveals what will be
Maybe your home is with me
And let the gentle wind ride on again
