"Blanket For A Sail" lyrics
"Blanket For A Sail"
(originally by Harry Nilsson)
Way out on the ocean
Far beyond the seven seas
There's a tiny little boat
Faith is keeping her afloat
And a tiny little skipper
With his worn and tattered coat
You see the laws of the ocean
Say that you shall never fail
Use your heart as a rudder
Faith as a compass
And a blanket for a sail
Sleep for the weary
And dreams for us all
Rest your head on a pillow
And I'll tell you a tale
Use your heart as a blanket
And a blanket for a sail
Way out on the ocean
Far beyond the seven seas
There's a tiny little boat
Faith is keeping her afloat
And a tiny little skipper
With his worn and tattered coat
You see the laws of the ocean
Say that you shall never fail
Use your heart as a rudder
Faith as a compass
And a blanket for a sail
Use your heart as a rudder
Faith as a compass
And a blanket for a sail

Just...

We keep it up to keep the devil
At bay...
