Crystal Ship
[Verse 1]
The leaves are turning gray
She said the sky is filled with lead
I'm weary to my bones
And I can’t sleep in my own bed
She did not ask that I might follow
That I might understand
All she asked is I recall her
By her footprints in the sand
[Chorus]
Oh, the crystal waters
Oh, the crystal sea
Oh, the crystal ship
That took my love away from me
[Verse 2]
Every creek and every raindrop
Cries out with the sound
For the sea she is their mother
And she calls them to go down
So the restless river runs
Without a moment's peace
To lose itself at last
In the silence of the deep
[Chorus]
Oh, the crystal waters
Oh, the crystal sea
Oh, the crystal ship that took my love away from me
[Bridge]
And I fear there'll be no stars
Looking out from that far shore
And I don’t know how you'll find your way home anymore
[Chorus]
Oh, the crystal waters
Oh, the crystal sea
Oh, the crystal ship that took my love away from me
