Track Insight / Lyrics
I sold my sailboat, traded in my dreams
For a workshop shack and a tool-littered theme
Got my tools, the ocean's in my blood
But I settled down, began to build my hood
Night falls, the yard's a mess, but I'm at peace
Smell of sawdust, wood shavings, a balm on my release
From the sea's rough ride, the salt in my hair
Here, I find my haven, without a single care
In this sheltered harbour, I find my wholeness
A world of my own making, where life's roughness lessens
My heart, it finds solace, in the embracing wall
Of the workshop that shelters me, through the storm and all
I work through the morning, the evening's my time
With a cold beer, the shadows, and my Zen and the art of lying still
I watch the stars come out, the world spinning round
In this small clearing, I've found my peace of mind unbound
Night falls, the yard's a mess, but I'm at peace
Smell of sawdust, wood shavings, a balm on my release
From the sea's rough ride, the salt in my hair
Here, I find my haven, without a single care
In this sheltered harbour, I find my wholeness
A world of my own making, where life's roughness lessens
My heart, it finds solace, in the embracing wall
Of the workshop that shelters me, through the storm and all
Life may throw its cyclones, the winds will howl
But I've built this shelter, a place to call my own
In the heart of this harbour, I've found my true home
Where the storm's fury fades, to a gentle, lullaby tone
In this sheltered harbour, I find my wholeness
A world of my own making, where life's roughness lessens
My heart, it finds solace, in the embracing wall
Of the workshop that shelters me, through the storm and all
The rain subsides, the pines stop their sway
I step out, breathe in the morning's gray
A new day's dawn, the world's awake and alive
But in this harbour, I'll stay, and thrive.
