Clippership

He told me he was a singer from far across the sea
He'd sailed on a clipper ship 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, well in my mind, he took me there

In my mind, he took me there and all along, he really cared
And together we shared memories
In my mind, hе took me there and all along, hе 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 firebird, 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 all the feathers looked so fine in my hair
He plucked for me a feather, one with colours rare
And all 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 clipper ship sailed on
Leaving just the wild seabirds to keep me company, yeah

In my mind, he took me there and all along, he really cared
And together we shared memories
In my mind, he took me there and all along, he really cared
And together we shared memories

In my mind, he took me there and 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
