[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Black sails in the moonlight
Black patch on your eye
You shiver your timbers, baby
And I'll shiver mine
[Verse 2]
A treasure map is hidden on your legs
Your veins are very close
Someday, I'll wrap my big yard arms
Around your legs and sail away
[Bridge 1]
I'll bury my heart on some island
And take you there someday to find it
I want you, I need you, I love you
No other man will ever read your legs
[Bridge 2]
But you're so veiny
You probably think this map
Belongs to you
And I'm so crazy
What can I do?
[Outro]
So raise the anchor up
Hoist the canvas
Sail me to my heart
[Instrumental Outro]
