Sailing

What do you do when the words don’t come?
When the moon goes down and the wine is gone?
Do you cry yourself to sleep while sucking on your thumb?
What do you do when the words don’t come?

What do you do when love grows cold?
Do you give, go home, or just get old?
And the ring around your finger looks less and less like gold
What do you do when love grows cold?

C: Jesus, carry us over this ocean
Jesus, glade beside us over the sea
To where forgiveness, like waves' sweet motion
Wakes us from sleep and blood drops make us free

What do you do when your cross gets too hard to bear?
And your fists fly like bullets spinning in the air?
And it feels like the Father and Holy Ghost don’t care
What do you do when your cross gets too hard to bear?
Lord, this cross is getting pretty hard to bear.
