The sailor looks upon the horizon Seeing a beautiful isle Waves the crew to dock Heading for the shore As he reaches his destination He sees sweet fruits Tall trees and shade And long elegant beaches The sailor looks out Back at the sea Remembers his sense of love But pushes it down with another drink After time The sailor cannot take it And as nobody else shall leave He takes a boat and makes way Weeks later in the open ocean Weak and dying, hungry and thirsty He closes his eyes Then a smile portrudes

Paradise
The sailor looks upon the horizon Seeing a beautiful isle Waves the crew to dock Heading for the shore As he reaches his destination He sees sweet fruits Tall trees and shade And long elegant beaches The sailor looks out Back at the sea Remembers his sense of love But pushes it down with another drink After time The sailor cannot take it And as nobody else shall leave He takes a boat and makes way Weeks later in the open ocean Weak and dying, hungry and thirsty He closes his eyes Then a smile portrudes
