She Took A Gamble Lyrics by Hannah Read

Way Out I’ll Wander

2018

Pull back the curtains and watch the swelling tide
The way it tears up, sucks everything inside
The hermit crabs and tiny things buried deep
Run back to shore now, pick up your heavy feet
The beach it stretches long, feels like our very own
It stands in front of our temporary home
Tied on down by ropes that cling to stones
Sometimes it feels like we're in this all alone
She took a gamble, it all could have gone very wrong
Strong minded courageous
Strong minded courageous
Oh when the wind howled it chilled us to the bone
It took some confidence to take us on her own
The longest summers and winters dark all day
We grew so close then, under the eaves we'd stay
We'd stay, we'd stay
We'd wash and wring our clothes
Whipped dry in salty air
Climb up the steep bank behind the house
Pump water from the ground
Boil it up, simmer down
We'll take the time, we'll take the time
She took a gamble, it all could have gone very wrong
Strong minded courageous
Strong minded courageous
She took a gamble, it all could have gone very wrong
Strong minded courageous
Strong minded courageous
