sting - the wild wild sea كلمات الأغنية

i saw it again this evening
black sail in a pale yellow sky
and just as before in a moment,
it was gone where the grey gulls fly

if it happens again i shall worry
that only a strange ship could fly
and my sanity scans the horizon
in the light of the darkening sky

that night as i walked in my slumber
i waded into the sea strand
and i swam with the moon and her lover
until i lost sight of the land

i swam till the night became morning
black sail in a reddening sky
found myself on the deck of a rolling ship
so far where no grey gulls fly

all around me was silence
as if mocking my frail human hopes
and a question mark hung in the canvas
for the wind that had died in the ropes

i may have slept for an hour
i may have slept for a day
for i woke in a bed of white linen

and the sky was the color of clay

at first just a rustle of canvas
and the gentlest breath on my face
but a galloping line of white horses
said that soon we were in for a race

the gentle sigh turned to a howling
and the grey sky she angered to black
and my anxious eyes searched the horizon
with the gathering sea at my back

did i see the shade of a sailor
on the bridge through the wheelhouse pane
held fast to the wheel of the rocking ship
as i squinted my eyes in the rain

for the ship had turned into the wind
against the storm to brace
and underneath the sailor’s hat
i saw my father’s face

if a prayer today is spoken
please offer it for me
when the bridge to heaven is broken
and you’re lost on the wild, wild sea
lost on the wild, wild sea…

- sting
