Shiver Me Timbers/samedi Et Vendredi Lyrics - Songs For The New Depression - Bette Midler

Well I'm leaving my family 

I'm leaving all my friends 

My body's at home 

But my heart's in the wind 

And the clouds are like headlines 

Upon a new front page sky 

My tears are salt water 

The moon's full and high 

And I know Joe Conrad would be proud of me 

Many before me been called by the sea 

To be up in the crow's nest singing my saying 

Shiver me timbers let's all sail away 

And the fog lifting 

The sand shifting 

I'm drifting on out 

Old Captain Ahab got nothing on me 

Swallow me, don't follow me 

I'm traveling alone 

The water's my daughter 

I skip like a stone 

And the fog lifting 

The sand shifting 

I'm drifting on out 

Old Captain Ahab got nothing on me 

Swallow me, don't follow me 

I'm traveling alone 

The water's my daughter 

I skip like a stone 

Won't you please call my family 

Tell them not to cry 

My goodbyes are written 

By the moon in the sky 

Say nobody knows me 

I've got no reason to stay 

Shiver me timbers 

I'm sailing away 

La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, laaaa
