	Story Behind the Song This song was written in an unusual way. It all began when Michele, a person I have never met and only spoken to via the internet, sent me a poem and asked me if I wanted to write a song based on them. I had never written a song based on anybody elses lyrics before, so I took up the challenge and attempted to capture the mood of the poetry through melody. And here is the result. Lyrics Swift were your words with the wind on the reef You passed me before I could see you moving Turning, you’re returning to me rising with my song over Long Reef Waking in my arms And I can’t keep your fading breath From taking me with you Into wind and ocean Taking me in to wind and ocean You’ve passed me I can’t keep you Turning, you’re returning to me rising with my song over Long Reef Waking in my arms
