Lyrics

Well I wish I was a sailor
In a port way out west
And I wish I was your lover child
Well I'd hold you to my chest
And I'd say
Things are gonna be different
When we reach another shore
There's no need to ask me
If I need you anymore
If love is like a river
Then my heart's a shallow dam
I never made you happy
But you made me what I am
Now I wake up every evening
Just in time to curse the sun
Ooh, in the name of the last one
Then I found myself in trouble
When I found myself in love
She said nothing is sacred
Save the pale white moon above
Then I drank myself to sleep that night
And I cried myself awake
The man in the moon was laughing
As my hands began to shake
Remember how we'd dance at night
To an old Hank Williams song?
We were so in love back then
Lord, we used to get along
Now I wake up every evening
Just in time to curse the sun
Ooh, in the name of the last one
Then I pulled myself together
Just in time to fall apart
Waiting for the end to come
Well I've been waiting from the start
So I heard a penny whistle play
As the sky turned black
I picked up my old guitar
I played a one from way back
