There's a story... [Harbor]

There's a story that she tells associated with each song. I should search around sometime... but I like interpreting the lyrics and guess at what it may mean.

HARBOR [Lyrics]
by Vienna Teng

we're here where the daylight begins
the fog on the streetlight slowly thins
water on water's the way
the safety of shoreline fading away

sail your sea
meet your storm
all I want is to be your harbor
the light in me
will guide you home
all I want is to be your harbor

fear is the brightest of signs
the shape of the boundary you leave behind
so sing all your questions to sleep
the answers are out there in the drowning deep

you've got a journey to make
there's your horizon to chase
so go far beyond where we stand
no matter the distance
I'm holding your hand

===
I think this is her most well known song? ...or actually, I think it was "Gravity"- there was some mention that she sang it on the David Letterman Show..............
This is a soothing song that actually makes me feel the pull of the tide and the wind and the swirl of the ocean..
