All around us there's shadows of love
And I think about your plans,
our travels and the times we have tried
I've been searching, I've been feeling alone
And I wonder why we said what we said and what you had in mind
Ships are sailing, sailing seven seas
Looking for the love that once was real but left
In our hometown they've been talking about us Telling
stories of a merciful man and how it did disappear
Fear suggested it ain't hand in the game Saying
we should not believe in everything we hear
Ships are sailing,
sailing all my dreams Gonna carry me
somewhere I do believe they'll find you
Sailors sleeping,
traveling to be free Listening to the whispers of the gods of sea,
they guide you
Ships are sailing in the gutter sea When the sky turned black,
spoken riddles to me,
cursed me
Sailors sleeping,
now you can't feel free And you're doomed
to find your own prison's key inside you
Feeling
low and sailing high,
what might stay below this is dark water
Sailors say down there lies a soul that holds you
Ships are sailing,
sailing all my dreams Gonna carry me somewhere I do believe they'll
find you
Sailors sleeping, traveling to be free
Listening to the whispers of the gods of sea,
they guide you
Ships are sailing in the gutter sea When the sky turned black,
spoken riddles to
me, cursed me
Sailors sleeping, now you can't feel free
And you're doomed to find your own prison's key inside you
