Why do I see stars at night?

Everyone else sees the light

And how did I come this far?

I'm sure that I can't fly


Why did you say that to me?

Eighty miles out on the sea

And I am built with parts of you

And you are built with parts of me


I think it's strange that the weather doesn't change

When you are beside me

When you are beside me

I make my plans but they don't stay the same

When you are beside me

When you are beside me


Oh Sailor, oh sailor

Take the wheel

Oh sailor, don't measure how I feel


Dance around the fire

Dance around the flame

We settle on the wire

You settle on my name


Take me with you when you go

Now that I know what I know

Cross the waves

Blow the windy tides

We go so slow
