Dry Land

Joan Armatrading · Gold [2005]

Let me sail to the depths of your soul

Let me anchor as near as I can be to your shore

I'm coming into dry land, been a long time at sea

And the season of loving has long awaited me



Tides and waves have kept me

Kept me going

I'm longing for the calm

I'm heading for the pastures



I can see on your dry land

Let the sea that once did take me

Bring me back safe to your door

For I long to touch the dry land of your shore



Clear back to land I'm rowing

Clear the deck, let me touch your soul

And maybe I'll bring you back a gift of love

I'll promise you so much more



Clear back to land I'm rowing

Clear the deck, let me touch your soul

I'll bring you back a gift of love

Then I'll promise you so much more



Let me sail to the depths of your soul

Let me anchor as near as I can be to your shore

I'm coming into dry land, I been a long time at sea

And the season of loving has long awaited me



Tides and waves have kept me

Kept me going

I'm longing for the calm

I'm heading for the pastures



I can see on your dry land

Let the sea that once did take me

Bring me back safe to your door

For I long to touch the dry land of your shore



Clear back to land I'm rowing

Clear the deck, let me touch your soul

I'll bring you back a gift of love

Then I'll promise you so much more



Clear back to land I'm rowing

Clear the deck, let me touch your soul

Baby, I'll bring you back a gift of love

Then I'll promise you so much more



Clear back to land I'm rowing

Clear the deck, let me touch your soul

And maybe I'll bring you back a gift of love

And I'll promise you so much more
