A Sailor's Tale

from Traffic in Space by Lost Pyramids

/

lyrics

Well now, my honey, won’t you rest your bones
And now, my honey, won’t you soothe my soul
All the sailor have reached the shore, as they come to dance once more
They know peace might find them upon hard soil

I asked the sailor to tell me, tell me what he saw
He looked quite blankly but with those kind eyes he said sure
An he said, “I saw castles with walls so high and beyond them an emerald forest with velvet skies!”
Clouds of pearls and a hot sun that burned my eyes

Am I crazy to sit here wonderin’ why
Am I crazy to dream of a better life
I don’t know, don’t know
Well I don’t know, I may never know

The sailor told me of his ocean, clearest blues and foam of white
Waves that crashed upon his window that helped the time flow by
He said, “Calm tides on those warm nights help those stars shine bright, you might say I’m dignified!”
But the ocean sure gets lonely, who knew water could run me dry

Am I crazy to sit here wonderin’ why
Am I crazy to dream of a better life
I don’t know, don’t know (he doesn’t know)
Well I don’t know, I may never know

The ocean sure gets lonely, who knew water could run me dry
Run me dry!
