Hurricane Breeze

There's a hurricane breeze growing off the East coast

It's swaying the trees and stirring the boats

There's no telling who it will affect the most

Mother's all hold children tight to their breast

While the men of the sea battle their death

There's no telling who will be dragged to the depths

There's wind in the rigging and waves over bow

There's no telling what the sea will allow

All hands to stations all ships to shore

There's no telling who won't return anymore

There's a light in the harbour swinging 'round through the fog

The silence of knowing and the howl of a dog

There's no telling who the dark water has called

There's candles in windows all lit for the souls

Lost to the madness or found on the shoals

There's no telling who has been swept to the cold

There's wind in the rigging and waves over bow

There's no telling what the sea will allow

All hands to stations all ships to shore

There's no telling who won't return anymore
