Lyrics:
[From Mark Knopfler's "Sailing To Philadelphia"]
I Am Jeremiah Dixon
I Am A Geordie Boy
A Glass Of Wine With You, Sir
And The Ladies I'll Enjoy
know imma get to the bag
All this emotion in a song goes by fast
And imma let it pass without the crash ok ok
I'm in the clouds
Sailing
Sailing
Sailing
The sun's shining and my boat's in tow
Sailin' in the ocean where the sweet winds blow
My girl is by my side, man it feels so right
I love looking
is brought in sailing ships, barrels, crates
Remains, thrown into ditches filled up with mud and sewage
Caress the cloak, welcome the grim lord, who
Don't know if it's love so
The answer it must be no
Made a decision to go
Had so much time to grow
No shadow left at all
You were barely even a ghost
by the beach watching the knights sail into the breech
Riggin' it up and working it out just like the hero's that we read.
Odysseus, Poseidon, The Old
brings us offshore
Frozen ships are sailing
A descent on the ocean
Ghost ships hidden by the fog
Can you hear them chant
The sky is turning red
Beneath
And she played the harmonium down by the sea
Singing God save the USA and God save me
And though God never had, she believed Him to be
On his
you headed? Don't let em decapitate
Get to your goals by any means
Gravitate
(Damn, I gotta think about what I just said myself)
Get to your goals
shades and my cap on
(Where am I supposed to be?)
It ain't that hard to get away in that car
Hey uh, can I stop and save face (save face)
Was set up by
the sunshine
Leaving at down
After I'm gone life go on
Someone's gonna take my place
Runnin'n in the human race
(*) Sailing on the tide in
the House of Lords
One by one
The ships come sailing in
One by one
The ships go sailing out
We live for words and die for words
I'm being followed by a moon shadow
moon shadow-moon shadow
leaping and hopping on a moon shadow
moon shadow-moon shadow
and if I ever lose my
Shadowed by life well you never can tell
Fall down a hole and you burn in hell
Striptease yourself against the wall
And watch the shadows begin
I'm sailing on a lonely sea
Where no one knows me only me
A cry for help a desperate plea
Muted by the war inside me
I tried to turn the other way
sailing with you baby
So free
Smooth sailing on the sea
Everything is alright
Honey with you by my side
Let it all go
And lets celebrate
Everyone needs
tipping slowly back and forth
Casting curvy shadows on the shiny parquet floor
There's a faded tapestry of her majesty
She stares across at me
I'm sure she
own
Waiting for the wind to blow
I've been sailing seas
Now I'm on dry land
And with damage in mind
I've still got working hands
I'm looking out for
on me when I saw you in that fit
My shadow is only seen when lit
Please don't go, behind the hill there's nobody waiting
Come sailing by my town, show me
a place to sleep
My arms are hidden beneath my sailing skin
i am broke and fucked up and i fall in the sand
and sleeping in the warm cradle of a billion
beautiful stars
And i told her a tale by the light in her eyes
That one day the world would be ours
Long ago
Across the raging seas
I left a girl
Out
Here I go, I'm setting sail
The weather looks fine today
But the old man by the sea warned that a
Storm is coming from far away
I'm setting sail
I can take the wheel
When I know you’re by my side
Fly through every dark cloud
And we stay right in stride
Cause we know we’re gonna get there
to the moon''
We were sailing, we were sailing
The sea that once was blue
She was waiting at the station while I was packing up some booze
She smiled
