"I Was A Sailor" lyrics

"I Was A Sailor"

Sleeping my Saturdays
Sleeping them away
Garden in a blaze
Feel the summer's rays

Girl, you mistook me for someone else
Outside the walls
Still I wait
For your call

I was a sailor and the sail got caught in dark seas
Yeah, I gave myself up to her so completely
I sank beneath the waves and was buried in my grave
I cast away my hope forevermore
I was a sailor in the service of the dark moon
And I promised you that one day I would come clean
If I leave the sea behind, will you meet me in the sky?
And we'll walk around the sun forevermore

Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?
Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?

Sitting up all alone
Praying to my throne
Floor is icy cold
Nothing more to hold

Girl, you mistook me for someone else
Outside the walls
Still I wait
For your call

I was a sailor and the sail got caught in dark seas
Yeah, I gave myself up to her so completely
I sank beneath the waves and was buried in my grave
I cast away my hope forevermore
I was a sailor in the service of the dark moon
And I promised you that one day I would come clean
If I leave the sea behind, will you meet me in the sky?
And we'll walk around the sun forevermore

Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?
Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?
Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?
Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?
Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?
Where's your gaze?
Light through the haze
Lost in the maze
Who knows?

Are you letting me go?
Are you letting me go?
Are you letting me go?
