Angeline

(album: Wide Awake - 2018)

I sailed the seven seas on a boat named Angeline
Made of old hickory, strong and might fine
I'll write you letters so you can see
In your ocean, the only place for me

I am the captain in another wicked rain
A crew unordinary, beaten down by a hurricane
Treasure island or the Odyssey
I remember every word you read to me

All I can say bout tomorrow
I'm going away for awhile
Every woman a river
But you are an ocean in my eyes
And I am a sailor tonight

When I'm alone at night and I wanna sit with you
I close my eyes and shut the door and think about navy blue
On all your sweaters, on all your shoes
All I ever wanna do is be with you

All I can say bout tomorrow
I'm going away for awhile
Every woman a river
But you are an ocean in my eyes
And I am a sailor tonight

And every now and then I get the feeling
Like you don't want me around
Every sword and dagger that you never wanted
Me to keep around
Blinded emotion, so far away from you
But I know the stars will tell me what to do

All I can say bout tomorrow
I'm going away for awhile
Every woman a river
But you are an ocean in my eyes
All I can say bout tomorrow
I'm going away for awhile
Every woman a river
But you are an ocean in my eyes
And I am a sailor tonight, yeah
