On The High Seas Lyrics - Gordon Lightfoot

Was it someone she met that's so hard to forget 

Was it some kind of an ocean of changes 

I don't remember where she said she would be 

And since I don't know, let me guess 

Was it somewhere in michigan or the lake of the woods 

Up in old montreal or toronto the good 

Somewhere in reno or somewhere in rome 

And when all is said and done 

Will she leave me alone 

I don't want to get so low 

And as for my sadness, it comes and it goes 

I don't remember where she said she would be 

Back in the city or on the high seas 

Was it up in hornpayne where the trains run on time 

Was she drinking champagne when she made up her mind 

North of the border or down in south bend 

And when all is said and done 

Is there no rainbow's end 

I don't want to own the key 

To some ghostly mansion where souls are set free 

I don't remember where she said she would go 

Straight for the highway or down the low road 

I don't remember where she said she would be 

Back in the city or on the high seas
