"Sailors" Lyrics

open all the windows I need the cold air
hide away my pillow, so I can't hide under there
my heart and my body ache for you
but I'll watch until the end I will see you through

don't say a single word I need my head clear
turn all the music off I don't want to hear
my heart and my body break for you
but I'll stay until the end and time will see me through

maybe it's time for the lights to go out
it's been so long since the warm summer nights
as long as I'm holding your head in my hands
it can be your time

helpless without the things that could not be packed
and homesick like the sailors who are not coming back
I can't turn my head away our eyes have met
I will memorize all this so I won't forget

be careful you're going far look for a light in the dark

maybe it's time for the lights to go out in you
It's been so long since the warm summer nights met you
as long as I'm holding your head in my hands
it's ok it can be your time

Thanks to Sailor
