《Ship in a Bottle》歌词

[00:00:00] Ship In A Bottle - Back of The Moon
[00:00:30] We sat in his living room staring at the fire
[00:00:37] And watched as the sparks leapt from the grate and the flames rose higher
[00:00:46] It was hard for me to tell him it was time for me to leave
[00:00:54] He said I didn't go see the world
[00:00:57] I thought that it would come to me
[00:01:03] Pointing to the mantelpiece he said take that if you wish
[00:01:11] A dirty whisky jar that contained a wooden ship
[00:01:20] Your grandfather drained that bottle and I put it to good use
[00:01:27] Now it ties me to my yesterdays I'd be better off to lose
[00:01:37] No use fighting when the wind's against the tide
[00:01:44] Ship your oars stow your sails just enjoy the ride of your life
[00:01:53] Or throw yourself on the mercy of the sea
[00:02:01] Whatever you do son don't waste your time like me
[00:02:22] He built it back in '33 just a young boy at the time
[00:02:30] Back when the matchstick masts appeared to tower above the Clyde
[00:02:38] Leaving school real ships he built carried men and goods afar
[00:02:46] To America and India and in the 40's to the war
[00:02:56] His country didn't want him as his mates fell through wartorn skies
[00:03:04] The rest they joined the convoys still he was too young to die
[00:03:12] Now he can't even find his glasses his hands shake too much he knows
[00:03:20] To break the bottle for himself and to let the memories go
[00:03:29] No use fighting when the wind's against the tide
[00:03:36] Ship your oars stow your sails just enjoy the ride of your life
[00:03:46] Or throw yourself on the mercy of the sea
[00:03:54] Whatever you do son don't waste your time like me
[00:04:48] Sitting on the mantelpiece the bottle's gathered dust
[00:04:56] While shipyards closed their gates were locked the chains begin to rust
[00:05:05] He was tied down to his memories forever in their debt
[00:05:12] But I'll sail for clear blue waters and a life with no regrets
[00:05:21] No use fighting when the wind's against the tide
[00:05:29] Ship your oars stow your sails just enjoy the ride of your life
[00:05:38] Or throw yourself on the mercy of the sea
[00:05:47] Whatever you do son don't waste your time like me
