Judy Collins "Sailor'S Life" |
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 Lyric from www.lyricmania.com |
