Lyrics

The last of man's great unchained beast lies lappin' at my door
 The last of man's great unchained beast lies lappin' at my door
 An' I'd be happy to give it what it wants
 But I do know it would just ask for more
 I search for you with every crest I ride
 In every trough I travel through
 I search for you in every trough I travel through
 I didn't mean to leave you
 I unfurled my sail and the wind did blow
 I didn't mean to leave you, darlin'
 I unfurled my sail and the wind did blow
 Why, why, why, why, oh, why I did not drop my anchor?
 Oh Lord, I will never know
 I search for you with every crest I ride
 In every trough I travel through
 I search for you in every trough I travel through
 On the lee of the island I hear your voice deep inside the calm
 On the lee of the island I hear your voice deep inside the calm
 Whispering, "Baby, I'll be your delight, if you promise
 To be my red sky tonight"
 I search for you with every crest I ride
 In every trough I travel through
 I search for you in every trough I travel through
 In the storm you are my destination, in the port you are my storm
 In the storm you are my destination, in the port you are my storm
 But I would weather you my love, if you would be my guide
 If you would be, my stars in the skies above
 I search for you with every crest I ride
 In every trough I travel through
 I search for you in every trough I travel through
 ♪
 I search for you with every crest I ride
 In every trough I travel through
 I search for you in every trough I travel through
