William Blackmon - Green Waves lyrics

Sailor on the seven seas His heart is filled with sadness and grief No one knows what hides inside Behind his harrowed face A short gaze at the sky "A distant place is the place for me Mother! Why didn't you give me wings?" The wind is so hard And with it comes rain Beating deep inside my soul The sea, she once was my friend Now she's claiming me I'm falling and it feels so right I know I'm heading towards my eternal night But a light in the deep tells of dawn So I'm moving towards the beyond Dreaming of heroics in the deep But this is not my sleep I know your secrets and your past My words shall echo last I think I was 12 years old When I realized I wasn't immortal And now in this world of green waves It's all coming back to me I've been here before I remember a storm Beating deep inside my soul The sea, she once was my friend And now she's claiming me I'm falling...
