The Grey Funnel Line
... Don't mind the wind, nor the rolling sea The weary night never worries me But the hardest time in a sailor's day Is to watch the sun as it fades away It's one more day on the Grey Funnel Line The finest ship that sails the sea Is still a prison for the likes of me But give me wings like Noah's dove I'd fly up harbour to the one I love It's one more day on the Grey Funnel Line Oh Lord if dreams were only real I'd have my hands on that wooden wheel And with all my heart I'd turn her round And tell the boys that we're homeward bound It's one more day on the Grey Funnel Line There was a time when I was free Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com Like a broken spar on the open sea But now that spar has washed ashore And come to rest by my true love's door It's one more day on the Grey Funnel Line Each time I gaze behind the screws Makes me long for Saint Peter's shoes I'd dance on down that silver lane Into the arms of my love again It's one more day on the Grey Funnel Line I'll pass the time like some machine Until the blue water turns to green Then I'd dance on down that walk ashore And sail the Grey Funnel Line no more And sail the Grey Funnel Line no more
