Lyrics for Song: Sailor'S Life
Lyrics for Album: Voices [2005]
Just like the sailor on leave from the ship
I am caught in the wind on the shore.
Rain on my face and nowhere a trace of a friend or a foe.
Out on the river the boats are leavin'
Headin' for Singapore engines blowin'
Everyone knows where they're headed
With their face to the wind and future.
Sail with me oh my love on a river of darkness
To a shore of light through the clouds in the sky
See the shape of the unicorn fly
See the cut of his wings
Here the song that his ancient voice sings Oooh
Stood in the light of a lamp on the corner
And looked at the shadows
Wondering how I could ever go home again.
Out on the river the boats are singing
Scrap pf a song I remember from England.
Trust your face to the wind and future.
Sail with me
How did I find myself here in the dark
Of deserted shipwrecks
Turning my collar back against the cold.
Out on the river the fireworks shining
Sound of a train whistle whining and crying
Turn your face to the wind and the future.
Sail with me
