Saler Man

Oh Mister Saler Man
Come across the sea
Bring a royal galleon
Make it just for me
A sea of sympathy
That's what I am
Life is like a golden ball
And I follow it where I can

I’m like a little dove
Don't know which way to fly
The islands of the sea are many
And they all look the same from the sky
The islands of the sea are many
And they look the same from where I stood
And I realize I haven't any
And if I had, it would do me no good

You can’t hold the world in your hand, no, brother
No, you can't hold the world in your hand
No, you can't hold the world in your hand, no, sister
No, you can't hold the world in your hand
You can only touch the one that you love, oh brother
You can only touch the one that you love
You can only touch the one that you love, oh sister
You can only touch the one that you love

I was going to go last night
But I waited just for you
Now that I've seen your smiling face
I know what I can do
I'm going to join my path in heaven
Constructed by living my days
And soon I'll be part of you all
And all your beautiful ways

The earth is a living thing
Just like you and me
And we're all bound up with it
With its destiny
When you see a golden dawn
And you wonder what it is
Is it the fertilization of a cosmic egg
Or the beginning of a kiss?

Oh Mister Saler Man
Come across the sea
Bring a golden galleon
Make it just for me
