Hug The Harbour

We should have hugged the harbour

Avoiding all disaster

Horizon gone from view

The lights were friends to you

And all the people who are dear to you

Are sitting right behind and trusting you

My trust lies in your precision

Let us leave this indecision

You should have hugged the harbour

Avoiding all disaster

Horizon gone from view

The lights were friends to you

A fundamental lack of understanding

Will quickly lead you to a fatal landing

You do not know your up from down you see

Your inner ear a liability

And all the people who are dear to you

Are sitting right behind and trusting you

My trust lies in your precision

Let us leave this indecision

So with this point of view

I pick a bone with you

I take a firm hand

A pointless reprimand

A fundamental lack of understanding

Will quickly lead you to a fatal landing

When the darkness met you

Your usual knowing left you

You're just not qualified

To choose the night to fly

You do not know your up from down you see

Your inner ear a liability

I met a man and he said this to me

"It's only with the heart that we can see"

But I confess I have to disagree

I'll put my faith in physicality

If you wish to still romanticize

I give my word I will not criticize

But I will draw the line when in the skies

Let's leave the indecision

The tired cynicism

My trust is in precision

When off the ground

Oh, will you hug the harbour?

Don't make it any harder

A case of mind and matter

Just leave the heart to barter

A fundamental lack of understanding

Will quickly lead you to a fatal landing

There is knowing why you thought you could

Contend in such an eagle altitude

With such a violent force you came to rest

A fatal failure to a final test

My trust lies in your precision
