My heart was on a stormy sea
Tossin' and turnin' like a leaf on winds of desire for you
I had to reach your distant shore
Take you inside and keep you and hold you and love you
Forever more
That was the springtime of the tide
Sandshells fall and washed it all aside
I'm a little bit older now, little bit wiser
When the wind calls I'll be ready, oh ready for love
I'm tired of chasin' shadows
I'm gonna turn me around and watch'em come after me
Cause I feel asleep and wisdom spoke
He said I'll tell you a secret like life this too will pass
So you see my friend, I'll just wait
Leave my love life up to the hand of fate
I'm a little bit older now, little bit wiser now
When my heart calls, I'll be ready, I'm ready for love
So you see my friend, I'll just wait
Leave my love life up to the hand of fate
I'm a little bit older now, little bit wiser now
When my heart calls, I'll be ready, oh I'm ready for love
