I used to be a sailor

Who sailed across the seas

But now I'm just an island

Since they took my boat away from me

Oh no

 

I don't like being stationary

I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea

I sit and rot behind these padded walls

Hoping one day they'll fall

And set me free

 

He wrote his epitaph

He wrote his eulogy

It said "I think that I can die now

For my true love won't come for me"

Oh no

I don't like being stationary

I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea

I sit and rot behind these padded walls

Hoping one day they'll fall

And set me free

 

I used to be a sailor

Who sailed across the seas

But now I'm just an island

Since they took my boat away from me

Oh no

 

I don't like being stationary

I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea

I sit and rot behind these padded walls

Hoping one day they'll fall

And set me free

 

Set me free

Set me free

Set me free
