WHITECAPS Songtext
von Prince

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

I saw a black butterfly lose its wings today
Singed by the candle underneath the archway
Wherever they land, they'll have to stay
Who can say, but what a price to pay


Whitecaps on the water
But that's okay
Ain′t never been a storm I′m runnin' 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

For the life of me, I just can′t recall
It's still a mystery, that′s
'Cause dark gallows lead to brighter halls
And masquerade, masquerade

Whitecaps on the water
But that's okay
Ain′t never been a storm I′m runnin' 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

I saw whitecaps on the water today
Fifteen minutes after you went away
