Take Me Along

On the docks where the boredom of life

Is all that I own

I see boats coming in with the fruits

Of places unknown

I watch as they come from the world in the sun

And I see in my mind

That there is farewell to this cold golden hell

They can leave far behind

Let me go where they go

Let me fly the winds that they fly

For to stay in this place

Will destroy a man's certain life

Take me along, a long way from here

Take me along to a far away shore

When you're poor it's easy to bare

With sunshine and soft summer air

At the end of the day

In a bar, with sailors I stand

And I talk about girls, about love

A glass in my hand

Then in my dreams, I can travel at seas

On a float, southern-bound

There I can hold all the magic in gold

Of the love I have found

When the bars on the quayside are closed

Alone I remain

I continue to dream

And each night the dream is the same

Take me along, a long way from here

Take me along to a far away shore

When you're poor it's easy to bare

With sunshine and soft summer air

Very soon I will take any troubled chance

That I can

Though I dream like a child

For my dreams I'll work like a man

I'll work and reprive for my to ticket-to-ride

Where the sun shines for me

Surviving any storms, and be wild to be warm

That's the way I must be

I'll be leaving behind no regrets

And hold my past

And I'll go to the sea

As I'll sail to freedom at last

Take me along, a long way from here

Take me along to a far away shore

When you're poor it's easy to bare

With sunshine and soft summer air

Take me along, a long way from here

Take me along to a far away shore

When you are poor it's easy to bare

With sunshine and soft summer air.
