I am having a bit of a problem remembering Dougie Maclean's excellent "Ready for the Storm" and as someone has my only recording on permanent loan I would be really grateful if someone could post it for me. Hope I can return the favour in the future Thanks |

Em
And the lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold
CHORUS
Give me mercy for my dreams, for every confrontation seems
But distance it no is no real friend, and time it takes its time, |

It's an angry sea but there is no doubt That the lighthouse will keep shining out To warn the lonely sailor. And the lightning strikes and the wind cuts cold Through the sailor's bones to the sailor's soul Till there's nothing left that he can hold Except the rolling ocean. CHORUS But I am ready for the storm, yes, sir, ready. I am ready for the storm, ready for the storm. I am ready for the storm Oh give me mercy for my dreams, for every confrontation seems To tell me what it means to be this lonely sailor, But when the sky begins to clear, and the sun it melts away my fear, I'll cry a silent weary tear for those that need to love me. But distance it no is real friend, and time it takes its time, But you will find that in the end it brings you near, the lonely sailor, But when you take me by your side you love me warm, you love me, And I should have realized I had no reasons to be frightened. |
