Place To Land Lyrics

Noah let a bird escape from the ark

On the three hundred fortieth day

Trying to find out if the waters of the great flood

Had begun to dissipate

'Cause if the waters receded the tops of the trees

Would be finding their way toward the sun

So old Noah opened up a window

And let out a raven and a snow-white dove

Looking for a high, dry, safe place to land

Those birds flew far and wide searching for any sign

Of new life in a desolate land

They'd fly til they tired then come back to perch

On old Noah's outstretched hand

But the next day he'd send them again and again

Never letting up or giving up

Because he knew there'd come a day when the rainbow would say

That the wrath of the Lord was enough

And there would be a high, dry, safe place to land

And my heart is a bird floating over a world

That's just drowning in hurting and pain

All around me is emptiness, endless grey skies

Breaking up into droplets of rain

But my wings are still open, just waiting and hoping

That soon all my searching will end

And I will finally find a resting place in the face

Of an honest and true loving friend

Who can be my high, dry safe place to land

Just looking for a high, dry, safe place to land

Still looking for a high, dry, safe place to land
