Tracy Chapman I Used To Be A Sailor song lyrics
I used to be a sailor
who sailed across the seas
but now i'm just an island
since they took my boat away from me
oh no
i don't like being stationary
i like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
i sit and rot behind these padded walls
hoping one day they'll fall
and set me free
He wrote his epitaph
he wrote his eulogy
it said "i think that i can die now
for my true love won't come for me"
oh no
I don't like being stationary
i like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
i sit and rot behind these padded walls
hoping one day they'll fall
and set me free
I used to be a sailor
who sailed across the seas
but now i'm just an island
since they took my boat away from me
oh no
I don't like being stationary
i like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
i sit and rot behind these padded walls
hoping one day they'll fall
and set me free
Set me free
set me free
set me free
