Lyrics
(1st verse)
Cloudy morning. 6am dread
Standing at the ferry. Wishing we were back in bed
With that look in your eyes, that look in your eyes, I love
(2nd verse)
Holding you tight. Shiver in first light
Goodbye tears. Glisten in your eyes
That look in your eyes, that look in your eyes, I love
(Chorus)
Crossing the water, sail away from your love
Crossing the water, Away
(3rd verse)
Now, far across the ocean. Life took me away from you,
You wanted someone steady. Like a river running through
That look in your eyes, that look in your eyes, I love
(Chorus)
Crossing the water, sail away from your love
Crossing the water, Away
(Bridge)
Cold heart away, It's all right
I'll survive another night
Cold heart away, It's all right
You'll get by, with a little light
A little light,
I will send you, a little light
(4th verse)
I remember when we met on Fremont street.
We hugged until we sighed.
Now 3 years and 300 ferry rides, we're saying our goodbyes.
To that look in our eyes, that look in our eyes, we loved.
(chorus)
Crossing the water, sail away from your love
Crossing the water, Away
(Bridge)
Cold heart away, it's all right
I'll survive another night
Cold heart away, it's all right
You'll get by, with a little light
A little light,
I will send you, a little light
Cloudy morning. 6am dread
Standing at the ferry. Wishing we were back in bed
