Bill Beare - Whitecaps

I lay on my back and I watched the heavens rolling to and fro
And I counted constellations one by one
The lazy rocking motion of a boat out on the ocean when the day is done
But a breeze increases and the wind it surely blows
And the sky is painted black by a storm cloud that grows and

Here come the whitecaps dancing as thunder claps
Here come the whitecaps laughing as the lifeline snaps
No you never can be to careful and you better be lucky
When you're dealing with the devil and the deep blue sea
No you never can be to careful and you best be lucky
When you're dealing with the devil and the deep blue sea

I let out the line and it sank to the bottom of the deep below
And I drifted into patient doldrums
The lazy rocking motion of a boat out on the ocean in the noon day sun
But a peaceful dream is oh so easily awoke
By a blinding lightning flash and a storm cloud that grows and

Here come the whitecaps dancing as thunder claps
Here come the whitecaps laughing as the lifeline snaps
No you never can be to careful and you better be lucky
When you're dealing with the devil and the deep blue sea
No you never can be to careful and you best be lucky
When you're dealing with the devil and the deep blue sea

Men will surrender to her beauty
Sunset sails, mariners' tales so rich in romance
But men must remember there's no mercy
She never forgives or ever gives a fool a second chance

The lazy rocking motion of a boat out on the ocean when the day is done

Here come the whitecaps dancing as thunder claps
Here come the whitecaps laughing as the lifeline snaps
Here come the whitecaps dancing as thunder claps
Here come the whitecaps laughing as the lifeline snaps
No you never can be to careful and you better be lucky
When you're dealing with the devil and the deep blue sea
No you never can be to careful and you best be lucky
When you're dealing with the devil
Lucky when you're dealing with the devil and the deep blue sea
