Lyrics
Galleon Ship
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I could sail a galleon ship
Long lonely rider cross the sky
Seek out mysteries while you sleep
And treasures money cannot buy
For you know I see you everywhere
A servant girl, an empress
My galleon ship will fly and fall
Fall and fly and fly and fall
Deep into your loveliness
And if we rise, my love
Before the daylight comes
A thousand galleon ships will sail
Ghostly around the morning Sun
As the city rises up
As the city rises up
As the city rises up
As the city rises up
For we are not alone, it seems
So many riders in the sky
The winds of longing in their sails
Searching for the other side
And if we rise, my love
Oh, my darling precious one
We'll stand and watch the galleon ships
Circle around the morning Sun
