Soul On Board Lyrics - Curt Smith

I was born at the wrong time 

A child lost on the skyline 

When I felt a need to change 

So I looked deep within me 

Somehow touched by the real me 

Had to find another day 

So take the heart of this man 

Heal the pain with your hands 

Shelter me from the rain 

Help my eyes see again 

Free me 

Hold me close 

And take my soul on board 

Shallow waters we drown in 

From the deep you are calling 

And with your touch I drift away 

Chorus 

With fear and pride I live and die 

A silver light in the blue night 

You come to me 

Take my heart be my guide 

Lay your strength by my side 

And cover me from the rain 

Now my eyes can see again 

Free me 

Hold me close 

Through dark skies you led my spirit home 

You took my soul on board
