O That I Had - Ruby Frost

O that I had,

The wings of a dove,

To rest on me

This is not new to me, as I sit in this boat

But I’m so cold my bones, will freeze.

And there’s nought through the haze,

I’ve been waiting so long,

But my hour has gone, away.

O that I had,

The wings of a dove,

To rest on me.

To fly back with,

A branch in its beak,

And rescue me.

So I scale up the oars,

And find what I have known

That I won’t last alone, for long

And it’s hard for me,

Cause I don’t like defeat

But I’ll give up this captaincy,

To you.

O that I had,

The wings of a dove

To rest on me.

To fly back with,

A branch in its beak,

And I am free.

He never gaze, when oceans raise

He reminds me to lift my arm

Now I have,

The wings of a dove,

To rest on me
