C. Columbus Lyrics - Singles - Hammet Melanie

some men are born with strong hearts 

that raging tides won't tear apart 

but not me 

i am Christopher Columbus 

it was 1987 when i sailed away to the edge of my sea 

it was an uncertain start 

i was born with an unsteady heart 

but it was all i had to guide me 

CHORUS 

some men are born with strong hearts 

to brave the wind and water 

some hearts stay whole on an endless sea 

some men are born with strong hearts 

that raging tides won't tear apart 

but not me 

last night i had a bad dream 

i believe that i was drowning somewhere in 

an unknown pool 

and god, i am a young man 

cannot remember where i am 

find me a map, fine me a clue 

CHORUS 

i am Christopher Columbus 

i am living in El Paso 

every day is a fever - i try not to burn 

and i am Christopher Columbus 

alive, living in El Paso 

and i walk the roof 

to wait for my return
