Steve Hackett - Set Your Compass Lyrics
Underneath a sailing moon
Lemon lime ginger soft glow
Scale the woodland around the dale
Rising falling through hedgerows
With her train the queen of night
(Calming your fear)
(With the Earth)
Slowly turning the tide (in the lowland)
From the long arms of the sea
Set your compass by your dream (falling)
Grazing sheep have lost their way
Fifty fathoms below the bay
Windward of the sunken rock (blowing)
Faces set like gravestones (staring down)
Neath the blackcliffs their cross-bones
Under the waves and put to right
Toy armies too rusty to fight (in the lowland)
Cling to the wheel how deeply you breathe
Set your compass by your dream (falling)
Grazing sheep have lost their way
Fifty fathoms below the bay

Steve Hackett Set Your Compass Comments
This delicious sound is a real speciality of Steve. It takes me back to the Genesis days and "Entangled". A melody like this always catches my attention and with the nautical flavour, this song is a beautiful uplifting theme....
