SAIL UPON HER SMILE

from SECRETS AND WHITE LIES by Jack Howard

/

lyrics

The beer-coloured bay smells oh so sweet
And the wandering sickness is nigh
The open sea's like a siren call
And the world bids a fond goodbye

Now you perch upon her temper
And you yap for her return
And you sail upon her smile

The map of all those mean streets
You used to know so well
Is not forgotten, nor forgiven
But hope springs eternal in this house, baby
And the endless search has not been in vain

Now you perch, etc.
