Sailor Song

Oh the ship I'm on
Time is what I ride
Forty winds
The captain and the tide

Well a sailor boy
Stole me from my home
And this sea of joy
Is the only life I've known

I would fly away
I would fly away
But I take the sea
For stranger days than these

Now 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

So 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
