about
After the battle at sea, The Barefoot Sailor re-assesses his current adventure, and heads out on his own.
lyrics
Take
Take me home
I'm tired and sick of the waves, and the sea, and the storm,
Wake me up
I'm restless and listless from pulling and sheeting these ropes
Take me Home
Let's go down to the shoreline and greet them
Let's go down to the sea to keep them warm
All that I really ask is to be forgiven
I've been bad, I've been banned, I've been bruised, and now I'm alone.
Breathe
Breathe on me!
I've got to get air in these lungs or I'll sink to the deep
Throw
Throw your rope
It's cold in this water, and treading is waning on me
Breathe on me!
Let's go down to the shoreline and greet them
Let's go down to the sea to keep them warm
All that I really ask is to be forgiven
I've been bad, I've been banned, I've been bruised, and now I'm alone.
All I see in the sky, are sparrows
Dying, and crashing in to the waves below
Take my word the hope died with their wingspans
Hold a light to guide, I'll come back home
I can paddle my way until I'm exhausted
You can lend me your hand to fasten my raft
But this rope is frayed, and won't last a fortnight
But if you, my sweetheart, see me often
The hope, and the sun, and the colours will keep us bright
Let's go down to the shoreline and greet them
Let's go down to the sea to keep them warm
All that I really ask is to be forgiven
I've been bad, I've been banned, I've been bruised, and now I'm alone.
