kris kristofferson - castaways lyrics

Loading...

one day as i was sailin’ on the carribean sea
i spied a little fishin’ vessel wrapped in nameless weed
her sails were torn and tattered and her wheel was spinning free
i told myself that little boat sure looks a lot like me

as i pulled along beside her and i climbed upon her deck
in the silence i could feel the hair a risin’ on my neck
i thought as i walked through the empty quarters down below
that lost abandoned vessel was the sister of my soul

’cause like a ship without a rudder i’m just driftin’ with the tide
each day i’m drawin’ closer to the brink
just a speck up on the waters of an ocean deep and wide
i won’t even make a ripple when i sink

in the emptiness my footsteps were like echoes in a cave
that seemed to say there ain’t no healing ‘neath this floating grave
when i scrabbled to the deck, my ship had vanished like a dream
leavin’ nothing but the lonely waves to hear my silent scream

’cause like a ship without a rudder i’m just driftin’ with the tide
each day i’m drawin’ closer to the brink
just a speck up on the waters of an ocean deep and wide
i won’t even make a ripple when i sink
