My heart was on a stormy sea Tossin' and turnin' like a leaf on winds of desire for you I had to reach your distant shore Take you inside and keep you and hold you and love you Forever more. That was the springtime of the tide Sandshells fall and washed it all aside. I'm a little bit older now, little bit wiser When the wind calls I'll be ready, oh ready for love. I'm tired of chasin' shadows I'm gonna turn me around and watch'em come after me Cause I feel asleep and wisdom spoke He said I'll tell you a secret like life this too will pass. So you see my friend, I'll just wait Leave my love life up to the hand of fate. I'm a little bit older now, little bit wiser now When my heart calls, I'll be ready, I'm ready for love. So you see my friend, I'll just wait Leave my love life up to the hand of fate. I'm a little bit older now, little bit wiser now When my heart calls, I'll be ready, oh I'm ready for love.
