Lyrics Port of Call - Beirut

Port of Call

And I I called through the air that night
A calm sea voice without light
I could only smile
I’ve been alone some time
And all in all
It’s been fine
And you
You had hope for me now
I danced all around it somehow
Be fair to me
I may drift awhile
Were it up to me You’d know why
I called through the air that night
The thought was warming inside
Was it infantile
That which we desire
Were it up to me Pull the wool from your eyes
And I I called through the air that night
My thoughts were still blurry inside
We were closer then
I’d been alone sometime
Filled your glass with gin
Filled your heart with pride
And you
You had hope for me now
I danced all around it somehow
Be fair to me
I may drift awhile
If there’s a plan for me Would it make you smile
No, don’t want to be there for no one
I’d stay here
No, I don’t want to be there for no one
If it’s all the same
I don’t want to follow your light
On the sea
No, I don’t want to be there for no one
I can’t be saved
