Sails

	Lyrics：Bernie Taupin Music：Elton John
	I viewed in my presence
	My hand on my forehead
	And sighting the liners
	Of mad merchant seamen
	In search of the living
	Or the spices of China
	Lucy walked gently
	Between the damp barrels
	And shut out my eyes
	With the width of her fingers
	Said she'd guessed the number
	Of bales in the back room
	While the seagulls were screaming
	Lucy was eating
	Then we hauled up our colours
	The way the mother had told us
	And together we just watched the sails
	Lucy I said
	In a passage of cotton kegs
	Can we hold hands
	I'm sure that it's warmer
	Then the gulls ate the crumbs
	Of Lucy's sandwich
