Wooden Ships |
If you smile at me, I will understand |
'Cause that is somethin' everybody in the world does |
In the same language |
I can see by your coat, my friend |
You’re from the other side |
There’s just one thing I’d like to know |
Can you tell me please, who won the war? |
Say, can I have some of your purple berries? |
Yes, I’ve been eating them for six or seven weeks now |
Haven’t got sick once |
Probably keep us all alive |
Wooden ships on the water, very free and easy |
You know the way it’s supposed to be |
Silver people on the shoreline, let us be |
Talkin' 'bout very free and easy |
Horror grips us as we watch you die |
All we can do is echo your anguished cries |
Stare as all human feelings die |
We are leaving, you don’t need us |
Go, take your sister then, by the hand |
Lead her away from this foreign land |
Far away, where we might laugh again |
We are leaving, you don’t need us |
And it’s a fair wind blowing warm |
Out of the south over my shoulder |
And I guess I’m going set a course |
And you know we will surely, we will surely go |
