[Verse 1: Hannah Ford-Welton]
I saw whitecaps on the water today
Fifteen minutes after you went away
Couldn't find a reason to make you stay
It's windy now, but it's gonna be okay
[Verse 2: Hannah Ford-Welton]
I saw a black butterfly lose it's wings today
Singed by the candle underneath the archway
Wherever they land they'll have to stay
Who can say, but it's a price they'll have to pay
[Chrous: Hannah Ford-Welton]
Whitecaps on the water
But that's okay
Ain't never been a storm I'm running from
Come my way
Weather man said it would be easy
Over in a day
It's windy now
But it's gonna be okay
[Verse 3: Hannah Ford-Welton]
For the life of me I just can't recall
It's still a mystery, that's all
Cause dark gallows lead to brighter halls
And masquerade (Masquerade, masquerade)
Masquerade us all
[Chrous: Hannah Ford-Welton]
Whitecaps on the water
But that's okay
Ain't never been a storm I'm running from
Come my way
Weather man said it would be easy
Over in a day
It's windy now
But it's gonna be okay
[Outro: Hannah Ford-Welton]
