Great Gulf Wind

Allen Toussaint

Night walk alone through markers made of stone
After the loss that had deepened
When something caught my eye - words on a shrine
Full moon aglow I could read them:

The Delta moon is a lantern over you
Like a porch light hung in forever
It will be left on because we're always going home
And we'll meet up again on a great gulf wind
We'll meet up again on a great gulf wind

Over I read with a whisper in my head
It hit me like a chill I was meant to have
Waiting for me there to comfort and to share
The meaning I found in this epitaph:

The Delta moon is a lantern over you
Like a porch light hung in forever
It will be left on because we're always going home
And we'll meet up again on a great gulf wind
We'll meet up again on a great gulf wind

Back through the gates I left that restful place
Taking with me a new peace of mind
So when the loss is profound
For those no longer around
I just remember to look up at night

The Delta moon is a lantern over you
Like a porch light hung in forever
It will be left on because we're always going home
And we'll meet up again on a great gulf wind
We'll meet up again on a great gulf wind
We'll meet up again on a great gulf wind
