Ship in a Bottle

[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
