Lyrics

I was a sailor once
out on the open sea.
Beautiful voices were
singing their song for me.
Then a red sky at morning,
my sailor's warning
came to me.

You love the ocean now,
I love the high and dry.
Riding those waves like that
we can't see eye to eye.
Red sky at morning,
my sailor's warning,
come to me.
I hear the roaring ocean,
you hear the voices of the sea.

I thought you wanted
to stay on the land with me.
Why am I still waiting
while you are still out to sea.
There's a red sky this morning,
my sailors warning,
come to me.
I hear the roaring ocean
you hear the voices of the sea.
