Despairing for Anchors (Reprise)

Jump to Comments

I’m writing music again, and this one is especially fresh.  If you know the guy who this song is about, please punch him in the face!

Where have you gone

You golden-haired wonder

Diviner of mysteries

And parter of seas

Were these not enough

The blue weeping masses

Calling your name

Like a sea at your feet

Now you’re gone gone gone away

And your song no longer conveys

What my heart and soul so long to say

You’re just another sad place

So little remains

In the wake of your parting

Just a shadow of greatness

And a promise of rain

You fell like a seed

In the sweet soil of Dixie

But now we’re left tending

Your harvest of weeds

You had me spinning around

And I got lost in the beautiful sound

Now you’re nowhere to be found

You’ve drifted away…

And now in the sea

Your last hope has left you

And your eye’s casting wildly

For a silent reprieve

But drifting alone

With no hope or promise

You’re despairing for anchors

Lost by degrees
