Becalmed - Leo Sayer

Becalmed on a marble sea

Trying to count the clouds hanging over me

I’m watching as the seagulls fly, high across an empty sky

Over me, over me

Adrift, another crazy scheme

But a man that ventures through an unknown ocean

Has the right to dream

I’m dreaming of another world, where the chequered flag unfurls

Just for me, just for me

I’m waiting — on a dream

I’m waiting

For my life to start

A new phase to begin

It’s just before the dawn

The time every ancient curse appears

Every fear is born

Just watching as the moonlight fades

Extinguishing the night parade

Over me, high over me

I’m waiting — on a dream

I’m waiting

For my life to start

Tomorrow to begin, to begin…

B/V's:

If you move too fast — if you move to soon — you’re never gonna leave this

waiting room

So hold on tight 'til the final scene, and keep real close to your dream

To your dream…

I looked out on a vast expanse of empty endless ocean

Stretching out before me

Offering no answer or salvation

Only that I should wait, I should wait, wait for the wind
