“Sailors Brave” from the Carl Funk With Vanilla - EP

lyrics

SAILORS BRAVE

Mother walks the shoreline
Sister mends a dress
The sailor’s son is dreaming of
A man he’s never met

Beware you sailors brave
As you ride out on your waves
Far away from shore
Where familiar is no more

Father was a Captain
When I was just a boy
Swallowed by the water cold
Before my first child’s toy

Beware you sailors brave
As you ride out on your waves
Far away from shore
Where familiar is no more

The sea is not a thing to be controlled
And the wind might never bring you home

Empty is the shoreline
Sister does not weep
The sailor’s son is miles away
And sleeps a dreamless sleep

Beware you sailors brave
As you ride out on your waves
The ones you leave behind
Might not feel you after time

The ones you leave behind
Might not feel you after time
