Lights |
Started out a younger man |
Just to sail the oceans wide |
Take a look at some other lands |
Maybe find myself a bride |
I soon found out how hard |
A sailor’s life can be |
Now there’s only one thing that I |
Ever want to see |
Lights across the bay |
Lights across the water |
Makin' plans to steal away, yeah |
With the Captain’s daughter |
Lights across the bay |
Lights across the water |
Makin' plans to steal away, yeah |
With the Captain’s daughter |
Jumped ship in Singapore |
Just to take a look around |
Stole a boat and I rode ashore |
But I ran that boat aground |
Nothin' much appealed to me |
And my money soon was spent |
Someone up and shanghai’d me |
And now we’re settin' sail again |
Lights across the bay |
Lights across the water |
Makin' plans to steal away, yeah |
With the Captain’s daughter |
Lights across the bay |
Lights across the water |
Makin' plans to steal away, yeah |
With the Captain’s daughter |
Guess I’ve seen my share of oceans |
I’ve seen all the waves I want to see |
Now I’m just goin' through the motions |
Really only one thing that I ever want to see |
I want to see |
Lights across the bay |
Lights across the water |
Makin' plans to steal away, yeah |
With the Captain’s daughter, daughter |
Lights across the bay |
Lights across the water |
Makin' plans to steal away, yeah |
With the Captain’s daughter |
I want to see lights |
I want to see lights |
I want to see lights |
