Breakwater may refer to:
Breakwaters are structures constructed on coasts as part of coastal defense or to protect an anchorage from the effects of both weather and longshore drift.
Breakwaters reduce the intensity of wave action in inshore waters and thereby reduce coastal erosion or provide safe harbourage. Breakwaters may also be small structures designed to protect a gently sloping beach and placed one to three hundred feet offshore in relatively shallow water.
An anchorage is only safe if ships anchored there are protected from the force of high winds and powerful waves by some large underwater barrier which they can shelter behind. Natural harbours are formed by such barriers as headlands or reefs. Artificial harbours can be created with the help of breakwaters. Mobile harbours, such as the D-Day Mulberry harbours, were floated into position and acted as breakwaters. Some natural harbours, such as those in Plymouth Sound, Portland Harbour and Cherbourg, have been enhanced or extended by breakwaters made of rock.
Breakwater is the debut album by Lennie Gallant, released in 1988 (see 1988 in music).
All songs by Lennie Gallant except "Raise the Dead of Wintertime" by Allan Rankin.
I can see you wanna sit down
When (?) funk is going on
Just playing (?) with your little chair
Like your mind ain't even here
Just give it a little push
Go on, go let yourself get lose!
Take that funk inside of you
And make your body move!
[Chorus]
Get up!
Time to release the beast!
Time is right to do it tonight
To tip-toe down the wall
Everyone get in the groove
We're about to have some fun
C'mon, give it a l'll push
Give it up on the floor
All I wanna do is dance with you
Gonna funk your mind some more!
[Chorus]
