[Intro]
Am
[Verse]
Am
Joseph, he left in the first light of morning
G
The boatman was waiting, the tide was turning
F
And he stood for a moment as if to say
G Am
I will see you in passing
[Verse]
Em
The wind took the sails and he floated away
G
Like so much driftwood washed out of the bay
F
And he sailed to the island where the sand meets the sky
G Am
And he breathed again
[Verse]
Am
There was something about the sand and the sea
G
How it all comes together, how it's all meant to be
F
For water is life and sand measures time
G
For the healing
[Verse]
Am Em
They say he found Jesus, but that's really not true
G
It's just an excuse for the blind and confused
F
For he searched for beauty and freedom from pain
G
And he made himself well
[Chorus]
Am C
Joseph, we waited for you
G Dm
We waited and hoped you'd come through
C G
We looked to the mail boat to bring us a word
C G/B Am
But the sound of the seagull was all that we heard
[Verse]
Am
Now he walks like a dancer and measures his space
G
So strong in his movement and easy with grace
F
And he carries his body like one who has seen
G
The hope of an answer
[Verse]
