Steady

With a leading light

And a face that launched a thousand ships before

To no return follow me I'm right behind you

On a dreamless night

Pulled forward by the moon and the dark stars

To another world

Where love will die or come to find you

One day when my boat comes in from

Far away to keep my head above water...

Steady now

Steady as she goes

I'll sail closer to the wind

Before I miss her boat

Ready here I go

I'm not gonna swing in the lead anymore

Time and tides wait for no one

If you don't know the ropes...

You're in the dark

Treading water deep beneath your feet

I've seen this night

I've seen it over and over again...

Well I feel I'm moving full steam ahead

To my oil on trouble waters...

Steady now

Steady as she goes

I'll sail closer to the wind

Before I miss her boat

Ready here I go

I'm not gonna swing in the lead anymore

Nights are wasting, I feel wasted

'Cause I'm not getting what you're on about

Though I try, try to forget about it

But I'm tired of waiting round

'Cause I'm just ready now
