Why should I sing that old sailor's song? If the days when I sang it have long been gone On the days that I got home for you And what about that other sound? The one that came from deep underground So hard to kill that you still felt the subs I threw it all away Even the portraits on your corridor Yes, I gave it all away Even the statues on your mantelpiece Now you're gone I confront myself The days are long, the night stifles me I was never looking for the hard way to do things I was just a preacher knocking on a stranger's door I was just a jellyfish melting in the sun I was just a sailor waiting for a change of tide I threw it all away Even the portraits on your corridor Yeah, I gave it all away Even the statues on your mantelpiece
