Lyrics of
Steeples

I heard a story about a boy,
who was swept off the deck
The sweeping tide swept the sea
over his neck
But it did end there
the boy began to swim
and dared to the sea
that dared to invade him
Did you ever want to know me?
Did you ever feel like you could?
But the sea did not
so much as reply
So the boy yelled to the ships
that were faded to die
Red sky at night, sailors take delight
red sky in the morning sailors take warning
Did you ever want to know me?
Did you ever feel like you could?
And we were going with the wind in our hair
and we didnt want to go back 'cause if we did
Did you ever want to know me?
Did you ever feel like you could?
Did you ever feel like i could?
Its a silent steeple that carries us down
