Sail No More (summer 2012) words and music by Karen Morand

I am a sailor, I guess I’ll always be
I know these waters well and they know me
But I’m growing restless, I’m longing for the shore
One day I will be sailing no more

Sail no more, sail no more
I will leave it all behind and sail no more
Sail no more, sail no more
I will leave it all behind and sail no more

I have no riches that men would seek to gain
I have this boat, I have my name
But I’m beholding diamonds, they sparkle by the score
And one day I will be sailing no more

Sail no more, sail no more
I will leave it all behind and sail no more
Sail no more, sail no more
I will leave it all behind and sail no more

Heed my words lads: beware the siren’s call
Her beauty and her song will be your fall
And weep not for me maids, find rest on golden shores
I’ll meet you when I’m sailing no more

Sail no more, sail no more
I will leave it all behind and sail no more
Sail no more, sail no more
I will leave it all behind and sail no more
