Ebony
The house was cold
And the floors were bare
As the maid walked in
Not a soul was there
And there boat was gone
Not a trace was left
Of the lovers who had fled
For a life they couldn't have
And they sailed away
On a boat of ebony
Off to find a land
They could call free
And they sailed into the sun
On that boat of ebony
Off to find a land
They could call free
I found a place for them to run to
And when they find it
I'll be here just waiting
I'll be here waiting
The sun will set many times
Before that happy day
But if we fight
Just maybe we can touch it
And see it
And feel it
I wanna see it
Oh they sailed away
On that boat of ebony
For her skin was colored white
And his was ebony
And the floors were bare
As the maid walked in
Not a soul was there
And there boat was gone
Not a trace was left
Of the lovers who had fled
For a life they couldn't have
And they sailed away
On a boat of ebony
Off to find a land
They could call free
And they sailed into the sun
On that boat of ebony
Off to find a land
They could call free
I found a place for them to run to
And when they find it
I'll be here just waiting
I'll be here waiting
The sun will set many times
Before that happy day
But if we fight
Just maybe we can touch it
And see it
And feel it
I wanna see it
Oh they sailed away
On that boat of ebony
For her skin was colored white
And his was ebony
