Ian Broudie - He Sails Tonight lyrics

In between awake and sleep He closed his eyes and took the leap The afternoons where mothers weep For frozen lakes and fallen leaves Safe inside his tree house dreams Forsakes his plans Forgets his schemes The wicked whisper from the sea This is the night you come with me Time is pa**ing by A ship comes in It sails tonight When all the lights parade the air Like carousels at summer fairs Beware the stare of ghost house eyes The wicked whispers in the night Still it's ringing in his mind So hard to touch, so hard to find In tree house dreams, he still go waits And seven seas to seal his fate Time is pa**ing by A ship comes in It sails tonight Time is pa**ing by A ship comes in It sails tonight Yes time has pa**ed him by His ship came in It sailed last night
