Hey Mr. Sailor Come to the river and see The waters rising up and Testing your ardent belief Me when I say It's coming down If you don't learn to breathe beneath the surface, you'll Surely drown Oh the horizon Glistens like the dew fall -Ing in the desert Under alabaster walls Will crumble down, so don't you dare look back Oooh-oooh oooh-ooh-ooh ooooooh-oooh ooooh Time will tell us what we need to know Hide your bluff behind sincerity and watch their trust grow Nevermore to victimize respite Or my dear, did you have something very different in mind? All of this is far beyond my dreams Hiding in plain sight ♪ I took a call today From someone I didn't know I took a chance away To hitchhike anywhere I go On thinking the same old peace of mind I think I finally understand the proverb "love is blind" And as I travelled I pitched a tent along the road Way in the sunlight Set up a hammock where wind blows Warmly carrying this tune Oooh-oooh oooh-ooh-ooh ooooooh-oooh ooooh ♪ These alabaster walls will quake and crumble down But I'll follow you to where freedom abounds Oooh-oooh oooh-ooh-ooh ooooooh-oooh ooooh
