Solas - Sailor Song lyrics

Oh the ship I'm on Time is what I ride Forty winds The captain and the tide Well a sailor boy Stole me from my home And this sea of joy Is the only life I've known I would fly away I would fly away But I take the sea For stranger days than these Now a salty dog Is caught up on the reef And the bottom of the sea She kisses in relief She could fly away She could fly away But she takes the sea For stranger days than these So you trade your life When something comes for you And you bury the knife Between the lies and truth You could fly away You could fly away But you take the sea For stranger days than these And I take the sea For stranger days than these
