Lift Me Up

Rising tide, lift me up, let me float away
This Safe harbor turned to mud, this is where I stay
Lift me up and take me away, Lift me up and take me away
Time goes by, unconcerned, to what my plans may be
The Moon calls out to the tide and returns eventually
Lift me up and take me away, Lift me up and take me away
It’s no good when your keel’s in the mud
Waisting time in the Am day
Drifting thoughts and dreams of a flood
I Wish I was on my way, Lift me Am up
Careful where you drop your anchor down
Low tide keeps you hanging around
Lift me up and take me away, Lift me up and take me away
An instant classic Greg! I love the lyrics. I imagine some of this was inspired by your hope for sailing to come indeed.
Great playing and singing....now if you could only dance!!!!! sorry, getting a little bit of cabin fever. you can stop dancing now. all joking aside ...another outstanding song. Love it. I think you have written more songs than Dolly by now.
Liked the leads very syncopated against the solid rhythm . Yummy harmonized back singing. Very good indeed
