Columbus Lyrics

Better keep your boat from going astray
Find yourself a partner and treat them well
Try to give them shelter night and day
'Cos here in this blue light
Far away from this fireside
Things can get twisted and crazy and crowded
You can't even feel alright
Better keep your distance from this whale

So you dream of Columbus
Every time that the panic starts
You dream of Columbus
With your maps and your beautiful charts
You dream of Columbus
With an ache in your travelling heart

See how the cormorant swoops and dives
Must be some thrill to go that deep
Down to the basement of this life
Down to where the mermaid gently sleeps
Not like here in this blue light
Far away from the firesideBlack Mary - Columbus - http://motolyrics.com/black-mary/columbus-lyrics.html
Where things can get twisted and haunted and crowded
You can't even feel alright

So you dream of Columbus
Every time that the panic starts
You dream of Columbus
With your maps and your beautiful charts
You dream of Columbus
With an ache in your travelling heart

And as the tide must ebb and flow
I am dragged down under
And I wait the livelong day
For an end to my hunger

So I dream of Columbus
Every time that the panic starts
I dream of Columbus
With my maps and my beautiful charts
I dream of Columbus
And there's peace in a travelling heart
I dream of Columbus
