Sailor Song (Say Goodbye To The Folks) Lyrics

I once was a ship on the ocean

A wanderer of the sea

The faces and countries that I've seen

I shaped them and o they shaped me

Echoes of hundred years

And a sailor song in my ears

Say goodbye to the folks that we could have been

Raise your glass to the ones that you're missing

The waters of life can be wild when showin' the way

Wave your hand to the ghosts that we haven't seen

They've always been with us and will be

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see

I remember Berry, when he was drunk then he thought he could fly, he jumped off my plank, flapped his wings and I kissed him goodbye. While Jack the parrot who thought to be a man made his tricks and laughed and performed a wild dance to earn his eternal place in the heart of all these traveller souls

Echoes of hundred years

And a sailor song in my ears

Say goodbye to the folks that we could have been

Raise your glass to the ones that you're missing

The waters of life can be wild when showin' the way

Wave your hand to the ghosts that we haven't seen

They've always been with us and will be

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see

Now I lay on the ground of an ocean

Whose water has long passed away

A desert of dreams but I know that

A sailor will find his way

Say goodbye to the folks that we could have been

Raise your glass to the ones that you're missing

The waters of life can be wild when showin' the way

Wave your hand to the ghosts that we haven't seen

They've always been with us and will be

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see

Say goodbye to the folks that we could have been

With hope in your heart and your story

The waters of life can be wild when showin' the way

Raise your glass to the ghosts that we haven't seen

They've always been with us and will be

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see

Have trust for the plan although sometimes hard to see
