Tracy Chapman - I Used To Be A Sailor

I used to be a sailor
Who sailed across the seas
But now I`m just an island
Since they took my boat away from me
Oh no
I don`t like being stationary
I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
I sit and rot behind these padded walls
Hoping one day they`ll fall
And set me free
He wrote his epitaph
He wrote his eulogy
It said "I think that I can die now
For my true love won`t come for me"
Oh no
I don`t like being stationary
I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
I sit and rot behind these padded walls
Hoping one day they`ll fall
And set me free
I used to be a sailor
Who sailed across the seas
But now I`m just an island
Since they took my boat away from me
Oh no
I don`t like being stationary
I like the rocky wavy motions of the sea
I sit and rot behind these padded walls
Hoping one day they`ll fall
And set me free
Set me free
Set me free
Set me free
