"Love Among The Sailors" lyrics
"Love Among The Sailors"
There is a hot wind blowing
It moves across the oceans and into every port
A plague. A black plague. There's danger everywhere
And you've been sailing
And you're all alone on an island now tuning in
Did you think this was the way
Your world would end?
Hombres. Sailors. Comrades
There is no pure land now. No safe place
And we stand here on the pier
Watching you drown
Love among the sailors
Love among the sailors
There is a hot wind blowing
Plague drifts across the oceans
And if this is the work of an angry god
I want to look into his angry face
There is no pure land now. No safe place
Come with us into the mountains
Hombres. Sailors. Comrades

And show
That we
Are love
Sometimes a wind...

If I could have held you once more with that light
It's nothing to you,...

That's what I was often taught

Down among the fishes in an absence of sound...
CocoRosie - "Beautiful Boyz (Remix)" Born illegitimately to a whore, most likely
He became an orphan
Oh, what a lovely orphan
He was sent to the reformatory
