There's an old friendly breeze that blows in the Gulf of Mexico

Somehow it always knows when I'm feeling low

So I'm gonna anchor down and wait till it comes around

Leave the rest of the world behind, yeah, that's how I'll pass the time Till I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again

Find the strength I lost back when you, you stopped loving me

I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear

Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind There's a peace in the way I feel when the water's still

And as long as it's calm out here I've got time to kill

But as soon as it starts to stir I'll lose track of the way things were

Float away on the open air but I'm not going anywhere Till I catch my second wind, get back up and gain control again

Find the strength I lost back when you, you stopped loving me

I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear

Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind I guess I'll just stay out here until I know the coast is clear

Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind

Sit and watch the tide roll in till I catch my second wind
