 Well  I use to sing in Texas and it sounded  fine to me
 I  guess I've come a long long way
 But  I've changed the words so many times  I lost  the melody
 And  I never even saw it slip  away
 Out  to sea  there  is a refuge
 Where  the  holy winds  are strong
 Out  to  sea there is  a high place  takes so  long
 So  I thought of California  by the shinning  sea
 Though  I'd write the song of songs
 I  could hear my baby's goodbye voice  ringing out  to me
 Dear  David I hope you live that  long
 Out  to sea  there  is a refuge
 Where  the  holy winds  are strong
 Out  to  sea there is  a high place
 Sailor  lead me to your song
 And  we will bathe  in the white foaming  water
 And  be pure as God's  driven snow
 On  that cloudless  day there'll be  no sorrow
 So  the story  goes  the story goes
 Well  I might never sing a song  that's good enough  for me
 Chase  the doubts and fears away
 
 On  a sinking ship of hope I could hear the sailors calling
 Call  the captain sail away
 Out  to sea there is  a refuge
 Where  the  holy winds  are strong
 Out  to  sea there is  a high place lead  me to your song
 And  we will bathe  in the white foaming  water
 And  be pure as  God's given snow
 On  that cloudless  day there'll be  no sorrow
 So  the story  goes  the  story goes
