Sailor

It was a wild sea

It was a long time

And when she touched him

Dreams filled his mind

He was a sailor

She was a lady

He left his heart there

She had his baby

While he was away

The wind quickly changes

Time keeps on rolling

He thought of her last smile

Dreamt of her skin

He was a sailor

She was a lady

He left his heart there

She had his baby

While he was away

And the mountains in the distance tell him sailor you're almost home

The ship pulls into the harbor but no one's there

He had to find her

They're ready to leave

Goodbye to the captain

Goodbye to the sea

He was a sailor

She was a lady

He left his heart there

She had his baby

He traveled the whole land

From city to city

He never did find a woman as pretty

His heart it was broken

Went back to the seashore

There was a lady and a child

That he had seen before

He was a sailor

She was a lady

He left his heart there

She had his baby

While he was away
