When Billy had just turned eight,
he was all alone on a boat
by his house on a lake.
He laid back, as he closed his eyes,
and he drifted off to sleep.
He awoke to the sound of crashing waves.
His boat was a million miles away.
And just when he thought he'd seen the end,
he heard his father's voice again.
He said...

Chorus:
Son, just take my hand.
Rest your feet on solid land.
Keep your eyes laid on me.
Don't be swayed by the sea,
and I will lead you home.

You know that I live for you,
but sometimes I get caught
in the storm and I fall.
You know when I'm in that boat,
and the world comes seeping in.
Sometimes I start sinking in the sea.
Sometimes I'm in way too deep for me.
Sometimes when I'm crying out for fear,
I hear you whisper in my ear.
You say...

Repeat Chorus
