The Sea Captain |
To cross the wide sea I deserted |
From the shore I did fly |
I thought it time that I traveled |
So I took to the roads of the sky |
It was late and the wind it did gently blow |
Oh, the night it was calm |
I saw the flower of the ocean |
And the universe did me no harm, it said to fly on |
The sea captain he loved the ocean |
But his ship was on fire |
His hands they did stretch out before him |
For to take one of many desires, but there was no time |
Across the wide sea he departed |
From the ship he did fly |
He thought it time that he traveled |
And I saw him as he passed by, and I saw him as he passed by |
