Sailor |
| What would you be if the waves set you free |
| And the wind in your hair brought you sailing to me |
| Tied up on shore would you weary no more? |
| When will it be, when will it be? |
| What would I be if a hurricane came? |
| Would I be clever, would I be shamed? |
| Would I lie helpless, cast up on the flame? |
| What will I be, what will I be? |
| I will be here forever |
| Till the river runs into the sea |
| I will always be silent |
| And hold my head up |
| Till we will be sailors no more |
| Where would we go? |
| To the sand or the snow? |
| Wander in memories or let them all go? |
| Would we be dreamers, helplessly so? |
| Where would we go, where would we go? |
| I will be here forever |
| Till the river runs into the sea |
| I will always be silent |
| And hold my head up |
| Till we will be sailors no more |
| I will be here forever |
| Till the river runs into the sea |
| I will always be silent |
| And hold my head up |
| Till we will be sailors no more |
| We will be sailors no more |
| Let’s run right out of the city tonight |
| With our hair tied up and lips sealed tight |
| I will cry no more, I said I will cry no more |
| Like an empty tourist at the world fair |
| I could only stand and stare |
| And let it pass me by, let it pass me by |
| I never should have said out loud |
| That I wanted to save the world |
| But I let it slip away, I just let it slip away |
| The only thing I wanted to be |
| Was the perfect one who killed for free |
| And I will try no more, I said I will try no more |
| But now we are together we won’t turn back |
| Where the boats are burned and the ties are black |
| And I will cry no more, I will cry no more |
