Second Wind

  • There's an old friendly breeze that blows in the Gulf of Mexico
    And somehow it always knows when I'm feeling low
    So I'm gonna anchor down, wait 'til it comes around
    Leave the rest of the world behind, yeah, that's how I'll pass the time

    'Til I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again
    Find the strength I lost back then when you stopped loving me
    I guess I'll just stay out here 'til I know the coast is clear
    Sit and watch the tide roll in 'til I catch my second wind

    There's a peace in the way I feel when the water's still
    And as long as its calm out here, I've got time to kill
    But as soon as it starts to stir, I'll lose track of the way things were
    Float away on the open air, but I'm not going anywhere

    'Til I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again
    Find the strength I lost back then when you stopped loving me
    I guess I'll just stay out here 'til I know the coast is clear
    Sit and watch the tide roll in 'til I catch my second wind

    I guess I'll just stay out here 'til I know the coast is clear
    Sit and watch the tide roll in 'til I catch my second wind
    Sit and watch the tide roll in 'til I catch my second wind Writer/s: Darryl Worley, Steve Leslie
