Cowboy Junkies - Mariner's Song lyrics



The last of man's great unchained beasts
Lies lapping at my door
The last of man's great unchained beasts
Lies lapping at my door
And I'd be happy to give it what it wants
But I do know it would just ask for more

CHORUS
I search for you in every crest I ride
In every trough I travel through
I search for you in every trough I travel through

I didn't mean to leave you
I unfurled my sail and the wind did blow
I didn't mean to leave you darlin'
I unfurled my sail and the wind did blow
Why why why why oh why, I did not drop my anchor
Oh Lord I will never know

CHORUS

On the lee of the island I hear your voice
Deep inside the calm
On the lee of the island I hear your voice
Deep inside the calm
Whispering baby, I'll be your delight
If you promise to be my red sky tonight

CHORUS

In the storm you are my destination
In the port you are my storm
In the storm you are my destination
In the port you are storm
But I would weather you my love
If you would be my guide
If you would be my stars in the skies above

CHORUS

CHORUS
