    when

    When the North Winds blow west

     

    Lost within an illusion, fishing net at hand

    Lost within your dreams, a far off distant land

    Living life of fantasy’s for fear of changing sands

    Praying upon thy knees, that the fish will surely stand

     

    Feeling lost and lonely, friends have long been gone

    No one to share the pain for their off in that far off land

    Hesitating reality, now the air is growing cold

    The fear of failure sets in as the North Winds start to blow

     

    Shattered dreams within the night, when water caps begin to fight

    Empty thoughts upon the day for there’s no fish within thy bay

    Faith and hope mere words that seem so far away

    There’s nothing left to do but give up and move away

     

    If with faith we’d we get to stay and fish the bay of plenty

    To frolic and play like the olden days,

     

    With angelic faces and constant smiles

    When friends came for tea and stayed awhile

     

    Dig down deep within your soul, and find the stories that grandpa told

    Find thy self that wants to grow upon this given land

    Give and ear and land a hand to help thy Nabors stand

    And when the North winds blow west, live within your dreams of yesterday when fishing was at best.
