So swallow me , follow me
I'm travelling alone
Blue waters my daughter
I'm gonna skip like a stone

so please call my misses
tell her not to cry
'cause my googbye is written
by the moon in the sky
Nobody knows me
I can't fathom my stayin'
shiver me timbers
as I'm sailing away

------
/Now the fogs liftin'......

------

I'm leaving my family
leaving all my friends
my body's at home
but my hearts in the wind
where the clouds are like headlines
on a new frontpage sky
shiver me timbers
as I'm sailing  goodbye........
