lyrics

In the mind of the wandering sailor
Dwells a roving dream
He wants to sail away
But how can he do it
Without a helm and sails

In his memory there’s barely room
For a misty sketch of yesterday’s journeys
And the miles he sails fade
Just like candles burning out

It’s thick night, suddenly he wakes
And he is soaked in a death-cold sweat
Sinking in some other mariner’s boat
Would be his fate, would be his lot

But he drgagged his tired and weary bones
And he rubbed his tired and weary eyes
Under tones of rust and niter
He found what he always dreamed of
