Chris de Burgh "Sailor" lyrics

Sailor

Underneath a silver moon, the ship is like a ghostShe's been out there for a weekJust waiting for the wind to blowBut now she's off and running, and there's nothing I can do'Cause I'm just a prisoner here until this war is throughAnd I'm singing

Sailor, can you hear me?Sailor, hear my callSailor, take me with youSailor, take me home ...

Yesterday I saw a seabird wheeling light and lowThen she sailed off to the westLike she was telling me the way to goIf I had her wings, my love, I'd be with you tonightBut my last hope has gone, it's drifting out of sightWait for me, oh

Sailor, take me to herSailor, take me home ...

Ooh, to feel the wind, to see the skyTo hear the waves breaking on the shore againTo be with you, to lie with youTo hear your voice echo through the hills againOh, my darling, wait for me, 'cause I will be thereWhen it is over, when it is overYes, I will return one day

Sailor, take me to herOh, sailor, take me homeSailor, can you hear me?Sailor, hear my callSailor, sailorSailor, sailor
