Lyrics:
and his gallant crew
With one hundred seamen he sailed away
To the frozen ocean in the month of May
To seek a passage around the pole
Where we poor
Your toy balloon has sailed
In the sky, love
But now it must fall
To the ground
Now your sad eyes reveal
Just how badly you feel
'Cause there
(From here to there to you)
From here to there to you my letter is on its way
To tell you how I miss you ever since you sailed away
To tell you
I have sailed the peaceful water salty ocean deep and blue
Felt the rapture of the dawning thrilled through sunset's golden view
I've sought above
that we pass by,
There I'll enquire for my sailor boy
They had not sailed long on the deep
When a Queen's ship they chanced to meet.
"You
and his gallant crew
With one hundred seamen he sailed away
To the frozen ocean in the month of May
To seek a passage around the pole
Where we poor
Your toy balloon has sailed in the sky, love
But now it must fall to the ground
Now your sad eyes reveal just how badly you feel
'Cause there is
Ah, but he became a big horny ram
And soon he was upon her.
Bleating . . .
So she turned into a full dress ship
And she sailed all over the sea
Ah, but
(Red sails in the sunset, way out on the sea)
Oh, carry my loved one home safely to me
(She sailed at the dawning, all day I've been blue)
Red
to hear
I wrap my fear around me like a blanket
I sailed my ship of safety 'til I sank it
I'm crawling on your shores
And I went to the doctor, I went
I sailed an ocean, unsettled ocean
Through restless waters and deep commotion
Often frightened, unenlightened, sail on, sail on sailor
I wrest
eighteen hundred and fifty-seven
We sailed up to the gates of Heaven.
Saint Peter would not let us in.
He sent us back to earth again.
All this is true
over, my ship sailed through
Sings:
What is this feeling, a-what can I do?
If you an' I, could be relieved
To walk and talk and be deceived
I'd give my
down you're rocking the boat
I sailed, ooh
Away on that little boat to heaven
And by some chance found a bottle in my fist
And there I stood, nicely
down for the last time
And I have searched this earth
And I've sailed these seas
Love is blind and it cannot find me
I'm blowing away
Shadows take my
of freedom
I'm lashed helpless to the mast
Remembering when first I held
The wheel in my own hands
I took the helm so eagerly
And sailed for distant
before the wind
And also younger than the sun
And the bonnie boat was won as we sailed into the mystic
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
You smell the sea
We sailed out of Dunmore Michelmas gone by
Cowhides and wool and live cargo
Twenty young Wild Geese ready fledged to fly
Sailing for the lowlands
the station, I know my destination
Love, bring me home again
You try to reach me but I've sailed away
You tried to read me but my words got in the way
sailed
Into the echo, we shout our dreams
Into the echo, we throw our hearts
Into the echo, we send our love
Into the echo, to the echo, into
the American way
To love with a soul 'twas easy to learn
Then he sailed away with a promise to return
Poor Butterfly 'neath the blossoms waiting
Poor
to marry she didn't tarry
I slipped the finger upon flipper we sailed away on a yankee flipper
Soon we were blessed with an eight bouncing dipper
dipper
Amapola, Amapola, how I long to hear you say "I love you."
The boy left his love upon a distant shore
And sailed from the one his arms were longing for.
I've sailed the world for seven years,
And left all I love behind in tears.
Won't you come here, wherever you are,
I've been alone long enough.
