Lyrics Stowaway - Hoist the Colors

Stowaway

My my
If they could only see us now
We’d be kings
We’d be kings under the ground
But hold on boy
Don’t you know this world is cold
It’ll shake you to the earth or so I’m told
But as those weeping willows sing their lonesome songs
I’ll be on the rivers edge
Slowly wandering on
I can hear those lonely voices wandering through the pines
Taking me away to another place and time
Holding my attention until they disappear
Something grabbed me by the hand and showed me where to go
No one will ever find you
No one will ever know
And you will be a memory
A whisper soft and low
But as those weeping willows sing their lonesome songs
I’ll be on the rivers edge
Slowly wandering on
No one will ever find you
No one will ever know
My my
If they could only see us now
We’d be kings
We’d be kings under the ground
But hold on boy
Don’t you know this world is cold
It’ll shake you to the earth or so I’m told
But as those weeping willows sing their lonesome songs
I’ll be on the rivers edge
Slowly wandering on
