One Sail Lyrics

	


Never was a Navy brat but my father was, yeah
He warned me not to make friends with weather
My love rests in a shipwreck
With a compass in his hand
I wait for him, like vultures wait for bodies

Send the wind down
I hear his voice now
At the bottom of the blue
I'll get my coat, it'll be the second coming outside
When I return with you

I'm a ship like you,
One sail, one sea, you and me
And I left my soul next to the shore
One sail, one sea

Wait with my face in sun
That makes me look less young
I miss your half irish grin
And our love is growing upside down
They say, you'll never make it home
But I will wait home, bury your clothes

Send the wind down
And bring him back now
Because he is to me my life

I'm a ship like you,
One sail, one sea, you and me
And I left my soul next to the shore
One sail, one sea

I'm a ship like you
One sail, one sea, you and me
And left I my soul next to the shore
one sail, one sea

Think about sinking down
Think about all of it
Think his face drowning out
I think of it all, think of it all
Think of it all (x2)

I'm a ship like you
One sail, one sea, you and me
And I left my soul next to the shore
One sail, one sea

I think this song is about a girl who loses her boyfriend (or husband, whatever) in a shipwreck, and she misses him. At least, that's what I think.

Probably one of my favorite songs off their new CD Here, Here and Here.

I feel this one might have some more personal meanings to them, so if anyone can find anything that would be awesome.

This song is so beautiful. It's actually about Meg & Dia's grandparents, I believe.

Yes, for some reason I'm compelled to believe it's about their grandparents...I don't remember from where I learned this. It may be in a blog/vlog somewhere if you follow the development of this album.

"Please send the wind out, and bring him back now, because he is to me my life."

such a beautiful line. you can really hear the passion in Dia's voice. She has one of the most perfect voices I've ever heard.

& this song is for sure about their grandparents. SO Beautiful.
