Sailor Song by Carmen Lyrics

Genre: rock | Year: 1973

Chorus
Help me
Save me
Don't let me die alone

Save me
Help me
Don't let me die here on my own

Help me
Save me
Don't let me die here on my own

Save me
Help me
Don't let me die here on my own

Verse 1
I once was a sailor
A sailor was all I could be
Ooh, and it made me a sayer
Of many a tale of the sea
Oooh

I'll tell you a story you'll never forget
Listen closely for I speak with my dying breath
So softly
So softly

Verse 2
Along the Spanish Maid
Chanced to meet the ship of Balthazar
Who told us of his journey to a land without a sun
And tales of treasure to be found

Bridge
Jade and silver
What a life of dreams we'll find there

Verse 3
On an island off the coast of Spain
(bah bah baaah)
Guarded by the keeper of the skies
A terrible swift flying beast with claws of steel
And jaws that have felt the flesh of man

Chorus
Help us
(You must help us)
Save us
(You must save us)
Don't let us die here all alone
Save us
(You must save us)
Help us
(You must help us)
Don't let us die here on our own
Verse 4
As we reached the island how could we know
The end that would overtake us all?
We rowed ashore and climbed out on a black sand beach
And then began to hear that awful sound

Bridge
Emerald and silver
What a life of dreams we'll find there

And our cries filled the air
And God did not hear or care
Or care

Chorus & Outro
Help us
(You must help us)
Save us
(You must save us)
Don't let us die here all alone
Save us
(You must save us)
Help us
(You must help us)
Don't let us die here on our own
Help us
(You must help us)
Save us
(You must save us)
Don't let us die here all alone
Save us
(You must save us)
Help us
(You must help us)
Don't let us die here on our own

Help us
(You must help us)
Save us
(You must save us)
Don't let us die here all alone
Save us
(You must save us)
Help us
(You must help us)
Don't let us die here on our own

Help me
Save me
