Columbus

Better keep your distance from this whale Better keep your boat from going astray Find yourself a partner and treat them well Try to give them shelter night and day 'Cause here in this blue light Far away from the fireside Things can get twisted and crazy and crowded You can't even feel right So you dream of Columbus Ever time the panic starts You dream of Columbus With your maps and your beautiful charts You dream of Columbus With an ache in your travelling heart See how the cormorant swoops and dives Must be some thrill to go that deep
