Walkabout

Into the arms of the sea
Where my tired head carried me
I walked out into the breeze
To be quiet with the storms inside

I prayed, but that’s never worked, why would it now?
Lifted my arms out and tenderly
Whispered “I’ve lost my way somehow”

Take, take these eyes and all I was
My disguise, and lay them out on the beach
‘Cause I won’t need them now to see inside

Take, take this voice and all its songs
From my insides, spread them out
Over the waves, over the sea
Above the cliffs, in melody

So come on home, come on home
It’s over now, this walkabout
It’s been so long, it’s been so long
Come home, please

Into the arms of the sea
Where my tired head carried me
I walked out to the waves
To be quiet with the storms inside
