She Took The Wind From His Sails

[Verse 1] Outer banks of North Carolina Lies a sleepy harbor town Generations of old sailors Dropped their sails and settled down Sam he is a young seafarer Grandson fo a schooner man Catherine is a sailmaker's daughter Today he's gonna take her hand [Chorus] Calm waters Wish them well His ship's come in She's put the wind in his sails [Verse 2] Catherine is a canvas painter Paints the sun and sand and sea Lately she's been painting a portrait Sammy is a dad to be [Chorus] [Verse 3] January brought the fever Sam was right there by her side Doctor told him son I'm sorry But Catherine needs your prayers tonight Morning light brought Sam a daughter Fever took his better half Sam gave Catherine to the water As he held theit baby to his chest [Chorus] [Outro] His ship came in But she took the wind from his sails
