Sailing On The Seven Seas
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.
You say that love will capture me
But not unless you give it free
We're sailing on the seven seas
Sister Ray is on TV
The light of love it shines so bright
That the FBI won't sleep tonight
'Cause I'm so in awe of you
That I don't know what to do
And I'm sailing on
The seven seas so blue
Sick and tired and don't know why
Skin and bone won't touch the sky
Sex and lies can't bring me down
'Cause I've sold my soul all over town
'Cause I'm so in awe of you
That I don't know what to do
And I'm sailing on
The seven seas so blue
People try to drag us down
So we learn to swim before we drown
'Cause I'm so in awe of you
That I don't know what to do
And I'm sailing on
The seven seas so blue
And I'm so in awe of you
That I don't know what to do
And I'm sailing on
The seven seas so blue
