Shiver Me Timbers

James Taylor

I'm leavin' my fam'ly
Leavin' my friends
My body's at home
But my heart's in the windWhere the clouds are like headlines
On a new front page sky
My tears are salt water
And the moon's full and highAnd I know Martin Eden
Gon' be proud of me
And many before
Who've been called by the seaTo be up in the crow's nest
Singin' my say
Shiver me timbers
I'm sailin' awayThe fog's liftin' and the sands are shiftin'
And I'm, I'm driftin' free
Ol' Captain Ahab
He ain't got nothin' on meC'mon swallow me, don't follow me
I'm travelin' alone
Blue water's my daughter
I'm gonna skip like a stonePlease, call my missus
And tell her I cry
My goodbye is written
By the moon in the skyAnd nobody here knows me
I can't fathom my stayin'
Shiver me timbers
I'm sailin' awayFog's liftin' and the sand's shiftin'
And I'm driftin' free
Ol' Captain Ahab
Ain't got nothin' on meSo swallow me, don't follow me
Travel alone
Blue water's my daughter
And I'm gonna skip like a stoneI'm leavin' my family
I'm leavin' my friends
My body's at home
But my heart's in the windWhere the, the clouds are like headlines
On a new front page sky
Shiver me timbers
I'm sailin' away
