Sting
180426274.gif

I saw it again this evening,
Black sail in a pale yellow sky
And just as before in a moment,
It was gone where the grey gulls fly

If it should happen again I shall worry
That only a strange ship could fly
And my sanity scans the horizon
In the light of a darkening sky

That night as I walked in my slumber
I walked into the sea strand
And I swam with the moon and her lover
Until I lost sight of the land

I swam till the night became morning
Black sea in the reddening sky
Found myself on the deck on a rolling ship
So far where no grey gulls fly

All around me was silence
As if mocking my frail human hopes
And a question mark hung in the canvas
For the wind that had died in the ropes

I may have slept for an hour
I may have slept for a day
For a woke in a bed of white linen
And the sky was the colour of clay

At first just a rustle of canvas
And the gentlest breath on my face
But a galloping line of white horses
Said that soon we were in for a race

The gentle sigh turned to a howling
And the grey sky she angered to black
And my anxious eyes searched the horizon
With the gathering sea at my back

Did I see the shade of a sailor
On the bridge through the wheelhouse pane
Held fast to the wheel of the rocking ship
As I squinted my eyes in the rain

For the ship had turned into the wind
Against the storm to brace
And underneath the sailor's hat
I saw my father's face

If a prayer today is spoken
Please offer it for me
When the bridge to heaven is broken
And you've lost on the wild wild sea
Lost on the wild wild sea...


Mirror lyrics:

Lost on the wild wild sea...
And you've lost on the wild wild sea
When the bridge to heaven is broken
Please offer it for me
If a prayer today is spoken

I saw my father's face
And underneath the sailor's hat
Against the storm to brace
For the ship had turned into the wind

As I squinted my eyes in the rain
Held fast to the wheel of the rocking ship
On the bridge through the wheelhouse pane
Did I see the shade of a sailor

With the gathering sea at my back
And my anxious eyes searched the horizon
And the grey sky she angered to black
The gentle sigh turned to a howling

Said that soon we were in for a race
But a galloping line of white horses
And the gentlest breath on my face
At first just a rustle of canvas

And the sky was the colour of clay
For a woke in a bed of white linen
I may have slept for a day
I may have slept for an hour

For the wind that had died in the ropes
And a question mark hung in the canvas
As if mocking my frail human hopes
All around me was silence

So far where no grey gulls fly
Found myself on the deck on a rolling ship
Black sea in the reddening sky
I swam till the night became morning

Until I lost sight of the land
And I swam with the moon and her lover
I walked into the sea strand
That night as I walked in my slumber

In the light of a darkening sky
And my sanity scans the horizon
That only a strange ship could fly
If it should happen again I shall worry

It was gone where the grey gulls fly
And just as before in a moment,
Black sail in a pale yellow sky
I saw it again this evening,
