Seafarer

I tasted salt air when I saw the Seafarer
He came from nowhere
I tried hard not to stare
And into the night air he laid my heart bare
I felt the warm sand under my cold hands
And seeped in his sun tan
It wasn't what I had planned
'Cause he has the heart of a good man
A heart I don't understand but I'm gonna learn about it
I want to keep this man; I want to sing about it
I want to call his name; I want to swim into it
Please, let him have me
For all that I'm worth and all that I know
Please, let him have me
For all that I'm worth
he's at the centre of my earth
I tasted salt air when I kissed the Seafarer
And into his arms deeper
I fell from old keepers
And under the warm sand
I buried my cold hands
And into the sea I swam
Leaving those old plans
'Cause he has the heart of a good man
A heart I don't understand
but I'm gonna learn about it
I want to keep this man; I want to sing about it
I want to call his name; I want to swim into it
Please, let him have me
For all that I'm worth and all that I know
Please, let him have me
For all that I'm worth
he's at the centre of my earth
