Feather In A Storm Lyrics - Poor Man's Heaven - Seth Lakeman

High waves she cut them up in two 

The storm's eye we could see 

With her tattered sails shaking in the gale 

A terror for a sight was she 

Cutting through the clouds the moon swept the deck 

Her wooden bones all alight 

With a quick glimpse, ghostly was the wreck 

I couldn't see a soul in sight 

She's like a feather in a storm 

Blowing on the wind 

She's like a feather in a storm 

When the devil threw those cold scarlet eyes 

Two beacons bright 

Timber cracked as she broke upon her back 

Her wooden bones all exposed 

Stuck there fast with a weather-beaten mast 

A pale strong figure he arose 

Then standing at the helm, the devil I could tell 

His silver cloak all alight 

With two burning eyes dancing in the sky 

A terror on a winter's night 

She's like a feather in a storm 

Blowing on the wind 

She's like a feather in a storm 

When the devil threw those cold scarlet eyes 

Two beacons burning brightly on the tide 

A fair warning to return another night 

Go quickly when he's chasing you with flames burning bright 

She's like a feather in a storm 

Blowing on the wind 

She's like a feather in a storm 

When the devil threw those cold scarlet eyes 

She's like a feather in a storm 

Blowing on the wind 

She's like a feather in a storm 

When the devil threw those cold scarlet eyes 

Two beacons bright 

Cold scarlet eyes 

Two beacons bright
