It was the sweetest of storms Raindrops and heat in the ragged light The water held me as you watched from shore I know this place, it’s home Alone out here in the sweep of the tides There’s quiet enough with space to think It might be alright if you hold me Whoever you are, stranger, come in Rain-lashed windows, electric trees Bone to bone, heartbeat to cheek With a sandy palm you touch my knees I know this place, it’s home Alone out here in the sweep of the tides There’s quiet enough with space to think It might be alright if I want you Whoever you are, stranger, come in Barefoot this morning on a blustery shore Wind in your eyes, and rain on your face Running for shelter hand in hand I know this place, it’s home Alone out here in the sweep of the tides There’s quiet enough with space to think It might be alright if I hold you Whoever you are, stranger, come in Salt kisses, wind eyes, smoke hair Wild hands, long lull, quick breath Wrapped in your arms here in the night I know this place, it’s home
