Santiago ft. Leslie Wills Lyrics

I know they say the world is round

But I don't know that it's true

I walked a mile, no turning back

And I can't get back to you

There was a girl

She was a carpenter

Built another ark

Now there's nowhere left to go

So she floods another heart

I thought she'd let me see the world I've never known

Let me rest with nowhere left in me to go

And let me walk her the isle to Santiago

But I never thought she'd let me go

Once I knew that you were the one

Now I don't know what to do

Our love was just a tender spark

Now I'm burning down for you

There was a boy, he was a sailor

Took a journey in the dark

But for him, the wind wouldn't blow

So he dashed against the rocks

I thought I'd let him see the world I'd never shown

I'd finally rest with nowhere left he'd want to go

Let him walk me down the isle to Santiago

But I never thought I'd let him go

There was a heart when I was young

That a debt of love was due

That someone owed or at least could loan me

A heart when they were through

There was a girl she was fable

A fairy in the trees

There was a boy his magic was able

To lure her from her dreams

I thought you'd let me see the world but not alone

Finally rest inside the garden we had sewn

I always knew you'd find a way to Santiago

But I always thought you'd let me go
