lyrics

He says, "I don't know what to say, Hazel,
Time is running short
My destination's waiting
And the ship is leaving port"
He wants to make her understand
The Northern Lights are just at hand
He says, "The secret in the sky, Hazel,
Pulls me to the sea
If I don't find an answer
It will never set me free"
He climbs aboard and waves goodbye
She doesn't hear him softly cry,
"Oh, Hazel, wait for me!"

He starts to pull against the ocean
With the compass in his palm
Emotion wells within him
As he pushes through the calm
The salty brine engulfs him now
The sweat is heavy on his brow
And as he rides into the mystery
He looks out at the swell
The winds are blowing Southward
And he tugs at his lapel
He prays to see her face once more
And calls out to the oceans roar,
"Oh, Hazel, wait for me!"

He says, "Let me put my hands against the sky
And feel the universe
I want to grasp the stars up in the dark
And let the light disperse"
And as he waltzed with planets
Many miles from shore
Never certain just exactly
What it is he's searching for
Hazel waits

The waves begin to tumble
And the clouds are turning black
He falls against the railing
As he takes a cold attack
His vision blurs against the rain
He feels a sharp and blinding pain
And as he sprawls across the deck
He takes a look up at the sky
And makes a silent promise
Not to let his spirit die
He spits into the face of death
And whispers underneath his breath,
"Oh, Hazel, wait for me!"
And he looks out at the sea

And he says, "Let me put my hands against the sky
And feel the universe
I want to grasp the stars up in the dark
And let the light disperse"
And as he waltzed with planets
Many miles from shore
Never certain just exactly
What it is he's searching for
Hazel waits

She stands out on the dock
Looking for a sign
Hoping he'll return soon
Hoping that he's fine

And she says, "Let me put my hands against the sky
And feel the universe
I want to grasp the stars up in the dark
And let the light disperse"
And as he waltzed with planets
Many miles from shore
Never certain just exactly
What it is he's searching for
Hazel waits
