What would you be if the waves set you free
And the wind in your hair brought you sailing to me?
Tied up on shore would you weary no more?
When will it be, when will it be?What would I be if a hurricane came?
Would I be clever, would I be shamed?
Would I lie helpless cast upon the flames?
What will I be, what will I be?
I will be here forever
'Til the river runs into the sea
I will always be silent and hold my head up
And we will be sailors no more
Where would we go?
To the sand or the snow?
Wander in memories or let them all go?
Would we be dreamers, helplessly so?
Where would we go, where would we go?
I will be here forever
'Til the river runs into the sea
I will always be silent and hold my head up
'Til we will be sailors no more
I will be here forever
'Til the river runs into the sea
I will always be silent and hold my head up
'Til we will be sailors no more
We will be sailors no more
Let's run right out of the city tonight
With our hair tied up and lips sealed tight and
I will cry no more
I said I will cry no more
Like an empty tourist at the World's Fair
I could only stand and stare
And let it pass me by
Just let it pass me by
I never should have said out loud that I wanted to save the world
But I let it slip away
Just let it slip away
The only thing I wanted to be
Was the perfect one who killed for free and
I will try no more
I said I will try no more
But now we're together we won't turn back
Where the boats are burned and the ties are black and
I will cry no more
I said I will cry no more
