Sailor
I'm not a sailor
I'm not so strong out of my shoes
Dragging like anchors
Over the ocean
Pearls in the sky are strung round the moon
Pointing to you
And I'll sail til morning
Or I'll sail til I
Am carried to you tonight
I'm not a sailor
But I'll spend the night out on the sea
Out on the sea
And I'll sail til morning
Or I'll sail til I
Am carried to you tonight
Didn't mention this group's Reservoir back when I was in the R's. I'm mentioning it now, another fine work from this group. Lyrics? Here they are:
Reservoir
Late last night, I missed my train
I walked back to the car and drove home again
Just outside of Pittsburgh, it's really not that far
Saw a light come shining 'cross the reservoir
The sun in California, it drops right into the sea
I took a couple pictures, they don't mean that much to me
Just outside of Pittsburgh, I saw it from my car
The light shines to the bottom of the reservoir
Starless night, come fall around me
Over all we've left undone
I know a light that shines forever
Howsoever we may run
The moon hung on the hillside in eastern Tennessee
With rows of honeysuckle blooming over me
But the iron hills of Pittsburgh where all my memories are
Gathering the light around the reservoir
Starless night, come fall around me
Over all we've left undone
I know a light that shines forever
Howsoever we may run
Howsoever we may run
As much as I admire the lyrics of their songs, they don't do the songs justice. I don't know how to embed the mp3 files in a post but if you should get a chance, find this group and give 'em a listen. You won't be disappointed.
