Forty days of living hell
|
Force nine gale, broken sail
|
What a story I could tell
|
|
Forty days of ocean roar
|
Now two nights to kill on shore
|
Stars fall, girls call, take me home
|
|
Walking through this empty town
|
Cuts me up and brings me down
|
I'm shipwrecked on my own
|
|
Passing cars striptease bars
|
And I'm drinking all alone
|
Lost dreams, gull screams, take me home
|
|
But this machine inside my head
|
Remembers every word she said
|
But this machine inside my head
|
Is telling me this dream is dead
|
And leaves me drifting high and dry
|
|
Read light beauty calls me in
|
Smoky haze, shifty gaze
|
And the dead night smells of gin
|
|
As rage and emptiness collide
|
Just feel a burning deep inside
|
Waves growl, winds howl, take me home
|
|
Someone please now rescue me
|
From the chains of the sea
|
I'm drifting endlessly
|
Someone please set me free
|
I'm sinking helplessly
|

Take Me Home
