And Yet Lyrics - The Last Ship - Sting

This town, this stain on the sunrise, 

Disguised in the mist this morning, 

It's 8 a.m. a seagull shouts a sailor's warning. 

This sky, this bend in the river, 

Slows doen and delivers me, the tide rolls black, 

And all my menories fade to black, 

And yer, and yet... I'm back 

This town has a setrange magnetic pull, 

Like homing signal in your skull, 

And you sail by the stars of the hemisphere, 

Whondering how in the hell did ye end up here? 

It's like an underground river, or hidden stream, 

That flows through your head, and haunts your dreams, 

And you stuffed those dreams in this canvas sack, 

And there's nothing round here that the wede world lacks,

And yet, and yet... You're back 

Some nights I'd lie on the deck and I'd stare at the turning of the stars. 

those constellations hanging up there from the cables and the rigging, 

I'd wonder if she saw the same, or managed to recall my name, 

But why would she ever think of me? Some boy she loved who fled to sea? 

And why vaste time debating vether she'd be waiting for the lekes of me? 

So ye drift into port with the scum of the seas, 

To the dance halls and the where you took your ease, 

And the ship's left the dock but you're half past caring, 

And ye haven't got a clue whose bed you're sharing, 

And your head's like a hammer on a bulkhead door, 

And it feels like somebody might have broken your jaw, 

And there's bloodstains an glass all over the floor, 

And ye swear to God ye'll drink no more, 

And yet, and yet.

In truth, it's too late to find her, 

Too late to rmind her at some garden gate, 

Where a sevant tekks me I should wait, 

And perhaps a door's slammed in my face, 

My head must ve in outer space, 

And yet, and yet 

Before the sun has set 

Before the sea, 

There may be something else that's waiting for, 

The likes of me. 

This town, this stain on the sunrise...
