DECEPTIONS (Tom Lewis) Inside every sailor, You'll find a young man Itchin' to get to sea, soon as he can To see all them pretty girls, dusky and brown And to get far away from his boring home town (repeat last line) Inside every sailor's heart, You'll find a girl Who is constant and true, She's a jewel, a pearl But she's like every other girl, happy or sad It's just this one's in love with a wanderin' lad (rpt line) Inside every kind of ship, black, green, or gray There are men with their eyes fixed on things far away Beyond the horizon, ahead or behind Will the dream that they're searchin' for be what they find (rpt last line) Inside every sailor, You'll find an old man With rose colored memories of where he began Where he dreamed of pretty girls, dusky and brown Now he longs to get back to his borin' home town Copyright Tom Lewis from his album "surfacing" Self Propelled music, Salmo, B.C. @sailor filename[ DCPTIONS SGL APR99 |
