She Took The Wind From His Sails

Outer banks of North CarolinaLies a sleepy harbor townGenerations of old sailorsDropped their sails and settled downSam he is a young seafarerGrandson fo a schooner manCatherine is a sailmaker抯 daughterToday he抯 gonna take her handCalm watersWish them wellHis ship抯 come inShe抯 put the wind in his sailsCatherine is a canvas painterPaints the sun and sand and seaLately she抯 been painting a portraitSammy is a dad to beCalm watersWish them wellHis ship抯 come inShe抯 put the wind in his sailsJanuary brought the feverSam was right there by her sideDoctor told him son I抦 sorryBut Catherine needs your prayers tonightMorning light brought Sam a daughterFever took his better halfSam gave Catherine to the waterAs he held theit baby to his chestCalm watersWished him wellHis ship came inBut she took the wind from his sailsHis ship came inBut she took the wind from his sails
