Sail ho, heave ho, come on, let go
Your time on Earth is over
I watch you sleeping on the bed
I'm talking to your soul
Did you ever think it'd be like this?
Did you ever think you'd laugh so much?
Did you ever think you'd have to try so hard?
Oh, I'm watching my sweet mama from my vigil on this chair
I close my eyes, I feel a change
Is this my lover here or is that going?
Did you ever think it'd be like this?
Did you ever think you'd walk away?
You and me running through the back streets of the world
Like a pack of hounds of two wanting more and more love
And how much is too much?
Did you ever think we'd love so hard?
Fighting hard and hurting worse
Oh, you're sailing away
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, just ignore them
Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey
Just ignore them
Hey, hey
Next time I open my eyes, is this my father here?
I know it's you because I recognize the smiling little boy
On the sunny front porch holding his mama's hand
Remember when your mama said we all need love?
Well, we all need love
Did you ever think you would refuse love after all?
Did you ever think you would give love and then take it away?
And leave the lives around you in such a shame and disarray?
It's all right, put your arms around my neck
Hold me tight as we drift out now
While I have the strength of ten more
Hold me close, we drift out into the darkness
I think, pigeons rushing up past our heads, people in doorways
I think this is Europe somewhere
You're so thin, you're so light
Don't let go, hold me, it's okay, hold me
Are these yours or mine?
There is nothing that I'd rather have
Than for you to put your hand upon my forehead
Just keep it there, don't take it away
Hold me and tell me that even though
You may not like all the things I do
But say, say that you love my soul
And remember me
Oh, remember me
Hold me close, put your arms around my neck
As we drift out into the darkness
You're so thin, it's only a movie
Sail ho, heave ho
Come on, let go
Your time on Earth is over
You have done well
It's time to rest
I'm talking to your soul
Did you ever think it'd be like this?
Do you ever think we'll meet again?
How will I ever know it's you?
Maybe will it be the love that I'll feel
When I look into a stranger's eyes?
When I look into a stranger's eyes?
Oh, you're sailing away
I keep my vigil on this chair
Is this my lover here?
Is this my brother here?
Is this my, my, my baby, my baby?
Is this me lying here?
