Harry Nilsson

Harry Edward Nilsson III (June 15, 1941 – January 15, 1994) was an American singer-songwriter who achieved the peak of his commercial success in the early 1970s. On all but his earliest recordings he is credited as Nilsson. He is known for the hit singles "Everybody's Talkin'" (1969), "Without You" (1971), and "Coconut" (1972). Nilsson's career is also notable for the fact that he was one of the few major pop-rock recording artists of his era to achieve significant commercial success without ever performing major public concerts or undertaking regular tours. more »

Black sails in the moonlight
Black patch on your eye
You shiver your timbers, baby
And I'll shiver mine

A treasure map is hidden on your legs
Your veins are very close
Someday, I'll wrap my big yardarms around your legs

And sail away
I'll bury my heart on some island
And take you there someday to find it
I want you, I need you, I love you
No other man will ever reap your rays

Well, you're so veiny
You probably think this map belongs to you
But I'm so crazy, what can I do?
So raise the anchor
Hoist the canvas
Sail me to my heart
