Listing Ship - Sarah lyrics
When I was young I fell in love with Sarah. She was too beautiful for me. I was raised to know my place, And it was not beside her. So I sold my things and traveled, Far way All the years my thoughts returned to Sarah. And when I slept her face was in my dreams. I turned to drink and killing men came naturally. And I became a soldier in the army of the king. I came home a hero of the war, To see the one that I had long adored. I found her by the forest, Bathed in scarlet sunlight, and the medals on my chest all shone like gold. I held her in my arms and said I loved her. I kissed her on the lips and she was mine. She closed her eyes and with her head upon my shoulder. I pulled my gun and shot her in the side. The bullet tore its way through her body. She relaxed I layed her on the ground to die. The blood came welling out in a halo of red, and the medals on my chest all shone like gold. She had been a pretty girl forever. The boys all fell like wheat before the scythe. But there had been something that was always missing, In death, her beauty was sublime. When I was young I fell in love with Sarah. She was too beautiful for me. I was raised to know my place, And it was not beside her. so I sold my things and traveled, Far away. |
