Icehouse - Wind and Sail lyrics

Now as the early light is catching the folds Black lace and satin wrapped, wrapped up against her face She turns her frozen steps that break the frost and cold Beyond the misty bay, still sleeping to the east "Too many miles", she hears the seabirds call Her captain's ship, she waits for wind and sail Below the breaking point the tide will ebb and fall The storm is silent now, as silent as the dawn Above the rocks and cliffs she watches all the while She waits for distant sails that never will return "Too many miles", she hears the seabirds call Her captain's ship, she waits for wind and sail Below the breaking point the tide will ebb and fall The storm is silent now, as silent as the dawn "Too many miles", she hears the seabirds call Her captain's ship, she waits for wind and sail
