Sailor Song

Lyrics

oh the ship i'm on
 time is what i ride
 forty winds, the captain and the tide
 oh a sailor boy
 stole me from my home
 and this sea of joy
 is the only life i've known
 i could fly away
 i could fly away
 but i take the sea
 for stranger days than these
 a salty dog
 is caught up on the reef
 and the bottom of the sea
 she kisses in relief
 she could fly away
 she could fly away
 but she takes the sea
 for stranger days than these
 you trade your life
 when something comes for you
 and you bury the knife
 between the lies and truth
 you could fly away
 you could fly away
 but you take the sea
 for stranger days than these
 and I take the sea
 for stranger days than these
 stranger days...
