Albatross - The Magic Lantern

Albatross

Skims over the waves

Alone with the rain and the wind

That she commands

Sailors say

Don’t be afraid

On fate’s fragile wing

We’ll ride out this storm

Storm, storm

Storm, storm

Blown off course

Foam flecked and cold

Home is an old children’s song

We sing ourselves to sleep

Lighthouse knows

All journeys end

With hope’s hand reaching out

To still each beating breast
