The Sailor
Oh, how I hate the day I set foot upon this ship
To set out onto the ocean
It was the day I left my heart behind
Never sure I'd see you again
I would sing my songs to you my love
Until all the sky is falling
I would swim these dark seas 'til I reached your arms
If it meant holding you tomorrow
Ohhh
Ohhh
And as I lie awake in the belly of this boat
Tearing through this rolling thunder
All I can think of are your sweet lips
And how they could warm the coldest winter
I stare at the stars this night, my dear
In hopes we see the same
For, as far as these stars can be from me
It's the closest that we can be
Yeah, it's the closest we'll ever be
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
To set out onto the ocean
It was the day I left my heart behind
Never sure I'd see you again
I would sing my songs to you my love
Until all the sky is falling
I would swim these dark seas 'til I reached your arms
If it meant holding you tomorrow
Ohhh
Ohhh
And as I lie awake in the belly of this boat
Tearing through this rolling thunder
All I can think of are your sweet lips
And how they could warm the coldest winter
I stare at the stars this night, my dear
In hopes we see the same
For, as far as these stars can be from me
It's the closest that we can be
Yeah, it's the closest we'll ever be
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
Ohhh
