|
The waves are shiny like a mirror |
|
Seagulls are circling above my head |
|
A wanna-be sailorman is playing |
|
His toy accordion |
|
The sun ain't supposed to shine |
|
This time of year |
|
But it dries off this season's tears |
|
It's been a long exhausting year |
|
And I can tell now things have changed |
|
Like they always have |
|
Come on, sailorman |
|
And sing for me |
|
I'll be your lover sea |
|
I'll be the wave that pulls you in |
|
Bury my shoes in the sand |
|
Throw my head in the neck |
|
I want the seagulls to call me |
|
I want my arms to turn to wings |
|
The ships they come and go |
|
Leaving here for tokyo |
|
Nevermind the destination |
|
Gone is gone no matter where |
|
The buzzing city on my back |
|
The open sea in front of me |
|
I choose water over wine |
|
In case someone asks me |
|
It's been a long exhausting year |
|
And I can tell now that things change |
|
Like they always do |
|
Come on, sailorman |
|
And sing for me |
|
I'll be your lover sea |
|
I'll be the wave that pulls you in |
|
Come on, sailorman |
|
And sing for me |
|
I'll be your lover sea |
|
I'll be the wave that spits you out |
