Ship and a Sailor

I am but a sailor and A drifter by my trade Sailing through port town to town Searching for a way Back home to my baby I’ve been gone for so long Mother nature’s sea don’t care Where I’ve been and gone Mother nature’s sea don’t care Where I’ve been and gone You can always find me where The river meets the sea And the afternoon sun starts to Set on top of me A lifetime can go by right Before your very eyes Your love is my guiding star Lead me to the light Your love is my guiding star Lead me to the light Is a ship and a sailor All I’ll ever be No time for love No family Only the sea When the boats start to rattle And the waves begin to break I still go back to a single Picture of your face And though I only knew you For a night I am sure Your love has got me through The roughest waves of war Your love has got me through The roughest waves of war Your love is my guiding star Lead me to the shore For I am just a sailor Bound to the sea forevermore
