Michael Penn - Anchors Aweigh Lyrics

In her eyes the world began,
The universe expanded
In her voice I hear it's pulse and wave
As it draws me to a shore,
Where I am surely stranded
Were it not for what she freely gave
A dose of her can't fade away
A kiss on the landing, then anchors aweigh

Baby says everything waxes and wanes,
But she's the queen of the waters
And nothing can touch her as long as she reigns

In her wake the spirits dance,
Like starling murmurations
Though the light they pray they might behave
Spinning through an open sky
And out into creation
Not before they pause a beat to wave
And though I was tempted to stay
A kiss on the landing, then anchors aweigh

A kiss on the landing, then anchors aweigh
