Elin Synnøve Bråthen - Lift Your Anchor lyrics

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
