HE TOLD ME HE WAS A SINGER
FROM FAR ACROSS THE SEA
HE-D SAILED ON A CLIPPERSHIP
FOR NIGH ON A MILLION LEAGUES
HE TALKED ABOUT THE PLACES HE'D SEEN
AND MEMORIES THAT BELONGED TO HIM
AND THOUGH I NEVER HAD BEEN THERE
WELLING IN MY MIND HE TOOK ME THERE
IN MY MIND HE TOOK ME THERE
ALL ALONG HE REALLY CARED
AND TOGETHER WE SHARED MEMORIES
IN MY MIND HE TOOK ME THERE
ALL ALONG HE REALLY CARED
AND TOGETHER WE SHARED MEMORIES
HE SWAM IN THE OCEAN
TO THE BED OF THE SEA
HE TOOK A PEARL FROM AN OYSTER SHELL
AND GAVE IT TO ME
HE CAUGHT ME A FIRE-BIRD
ONE WITH COLOURS RARE
AND PLUCKED FOR ME A FEATHER
TO WEAR IN MY HAIR
HE PLUCKED FOR ME A FEATHER
ONE WITH COLOURS RARE
AND OH! THE FEATHERS LOOKED
SO FINE IN MY HAIR
HE PLUCKED FOR A ME A FEATHER
ONE WITH COLOURS RARE
AND OH I THE FEATHERS LOOKED
SO FINE IN MY HAIR
BUT THE MUSIC IT PLAYED ON
AND THE SINGER SANG HIS SONG
AND IT RANG TO THE HIGHEST TREE
"WAIT FOR ME"
AND THE SINGER SANG HIS SONG
AND THE CLIPPERSHIP SAILED ON
LEAVING JUST THE WILD SEA BIRDS
TO KEEP ME COMPANY YEH I
IN MY MIND HE TOOK METHERE
ALL ALONG HE REALLY CARED
AND TOGETHER WE SHARED MEMORIES
IN MY MIND HE TOOK ME THERE
ALL ALONG HE REALLY CARED
AND TOGETHER WE SHARED MEMORIES
IN MY MIND HE TOOK ME THERE
ALL ALONG HE REALLY CARED
AND TOGETHER WE SHARED MEMORIES
