To see me now you would never think to wonder
How near we were to sinkin' under
For so long
But now I'm gone
So long
The truth be told, I think my soul was stuck in amber
Like a chip for weary gamblers
For so long
But now I'm gone
So long
[Chorus]
See me, I'm a sailor now
Sail on, sail on
Dark skies seem paler now
I'm gone, so long
The steady hand that every beggar holds his bowl in
Was what we took for steady rollin'
For so long
But now I'm gone
So long
[Chorus]
