Ready for the storm

Ready for the storm - Guitavio

Written by：Dougie McLean

The waves crash in and the tide pulls out

It's an angry sea but there's no doubt

That the lighthouse will keep shining out

To warn the lonely sailor

And the lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold

Through the sailor's bones to the sailor's soul

Till there's nothing left that he can hold

Except the rolling ocean

I am ready for the storm

Yes sir ready I am

I'm ready for the storm

I'm ready for the storm

Give me mercy for my dreams

For every confrontation seems

To tell me what it really means

To be this lonely sailor

But when the sky begins to clear

And the sun it melts away my fear

I will cry a silent weary tear

For those that need to love me

I am ready for the storm

Yes sir ready I am

I'm ready for the storm

I'm ready for the storm

But distance it's no real friend

And time it takes it's time

But you will find that in the end

It brings you me the lonely sailor

When you take me by your side

You love me warm you love me

And I should have realized

I had no reason to be frightened

I am ready for the storm

Yes sir ready I am

I'm ready for the storm

I'm ready for the storm

I'm ready for the storm

Yes sir ready I am

I'm ready for the storm

I'm ready for the storm
