T / Tracy Chapman lyrics / I Used To Be A Sailor


I Used To Be A Sailor Lyrics

by Tracy Chapman

album: Matters Of The Heart (1992)

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
