I am a seafarer I am a born sailor
riding a wind that howls at my back
high on the deep seas out in the misty
sun breaking through like a crown on the caps
Oh that was close.
oh I was almost
lost in a dream and abandoned my post
hugging the coast
Here I have slate cliffs
here I have marshes
that shelter a wind that howls at my my heels
out under the big skies out in the blue skies
a lone gull that calls you were born to be here
Oh, that was close.
oh I just almost
answered a call and abandoned my post
hugging the coast.
[ bridge ]
I am a dreamer born to be dreaming
slave to a wind that howls through my soul
here I have slate cliffs
here I have marshes
that shelter a tale that burns to be told
Oh, that was close.
oh I have almost
cast me a dream and abandoned my post
here hugging the coast
hugging the coast
hugging the coast
hugging the coast
