Oh end this day show me the ocean |
|
When shall i see the sea |
|
May this day set me in emotion |
|
I ought to be on my way |
|
We were there |
|
We were sailing on the terra nova |
|
Sailing for the setting sun |
|
Sailing for the new horizon |
|
May this day show me an ocean |
|
I ought to be on my way |
|
Ought to be on my way right now |
|
Stepping on the boat |
|
With a lump in my throat |
|
On my way right now |
|
I got a letter from a dear friend of mine |
|
The story of a spiritual awakening |
|
She spoke of her love |
|
Returning in kind |
|
She let me know that |
|
She'd be waiting |
|
And i should be on my way by now |
|
Walking across the floor |
|
Reaching for the door |
|
On my way by now |
|
But here i sit country fool that i am |
|
My elbow on my knee |
|
And my chin in my hand |
|
My mind in the gutter |
|
And my eye on the street |
|
Holed up in a cave of concrete |
|
And i ought to be on my way right now |
|
Packing my things |
|
While the telephone rings |
|
On my way right now |
|
I miss my lovely mother |
|
And i love my lonely father |
|
I know i owe my brothers |
|
One thing and another |
|
I hear my sister singing |
|
And i ought to be on my way right now |
|
Moving across the land |
|
With my heart in my hand |
|
On my way by now |
|
Ought to be on my way by now |
|
Oh end this day set me in motion |
|
Ought to be on my way |
|
Out of the west of lambert's cove |
|
There's a sail out in the sun |
|
And i'm on board though very small |
|
I've come home to stop yearning |
|
Burn off the haze around the shore |
|
Turn off the crazy way i feel |
|
I'll stay away from you no more |
|
I've come home to stop yearning |
