Bob Seger – Sailing Nights lyrics
Like the wind that carried ahab
To a far, more distant shore
To a shipwreck that was certain
Long before
I can see there's no use sailing
Among ships I've known before
It will only bring me more
And more and more
Lonely sailing nights, more
Racing, dimming lights
Lonely nights, and all too
Familiar sights

Just as water seeks its level
So I only seek to live;
Hoping somehow I can find
A way to give
And the sea, it softly beckons
"Come and go where you've not been."
With the dawning of a new day
I'm gone, again
Lonely sailing nights, ... Gone
Racing, dimming lights
Lonely nights
And all too
Familiar sights
