jolie holland - the grey funnel line lyrics

Loading...

don’t mind the rain or the rolling sea
the weary nights never trouble me
but the hardest time on a sailor’s day
is to watch the sun as it sinks away
just one more day on the grey funnel line

o, finest ship that sails the sea
is still a prison for the likes of me
but if i had wings like noah’s dove
i’ll fly up harbour to the one i love
just one more day on the grey funnel line

now there was a time when i was free
like a floating spar on the rollin’ sea
but now that spar has washed ash0r-
and it comes to rest at my real love’s door
just one more day on the grey funnel line

o, every time i gaze behind the screws
how i long to be in saint peter’s shoes
then i’d walk on down that silver lane
and i take my real love in my arms again
just one more day on the grey funnel line

o lord if only dreams were real
then i’d put my hands on that wooden wheel
and with all my heart i’d turn her round
and i tell the boys that we’re homeward bound

so i’ll p-ss the time like some machine
until the blue ocean turns to green
then i’ll dance on down that walk ash0r-
and sail the grey funnel line no more
i’ll sail the grey funnel line no more
