Shipboard Cook

I wanna go to the ocean and send a postcard of my loneliness Forgetting you is so elusive I run away but it's always this You're the only one I love It's always been you And I wish I was conscripted in the Merchant Marines Shanghaied into service to sails and machines just to stay alive (oh) And my sister keeps it simple she’s a shipboard cook She can draw a line, but if you take a look She's kinda worried though (oh) 'Cause I'm hoping you will find me I keep hoping you will find me Hoping you will find me I keep hoping you will find me (ooh ooh) I'm always a ghost I tried your gypsy tarot readings, some seance stunt I keep an open mind but I think it’s just a front Want to believe it though (oh) My sister says "Forget her boy, that's all that you need" pitching magical elixirs and bottles full of mead for a broken heart It's too late for that ? Still rowing up to tell the truth I lost myself and that's where I lost you Oh wanna go, I'm not waiting for it I'm always a ghost You're about as haunted as a darkened basement I've got all the chances of a dog in a settlement All about her secrets, she'll never tell I ride along without 'em on a deep sea swell I heard there's someone new, and she starts to talk She's the merry widow on the widow's walk And the fear is I have no one no matter where you are In this twisted fucked up film noir And I'm hoping you will find me I keep hoping you will find me Hoping you will find me I keep hoping you will find me Yeah yeah yeah ? my voices ? Sing loud enough to tell the truth I lost myself and that's where I lost you Oh oh wanna go, I've got whipping paws I'm always a ghost I’m always a ghost I’m always a ghost I’m always a ghost So learn my voices to your ? Sing loud enough to tell the truth I lost myself and that's where I lost you Oh oh wanna go, I've got whipping paws I'm always a ghost So learn my voices to your ? Sing loud enough to tell the truth I lost myself and that's where I lost you Oh oh wanna go, I've got whipping paws I'm always a ghost
