Red Sails Songtext
von Custom Kings

So underneath of the light she stands
With angels′ face and a butcher's hands
Scribbling a notion with pad and a pen
Baby, let′s go through the motions again
Tell me when, I'll be back then
Calling your name through the streets
I'll be shipping out to the Dead Sea
Sailor in love with a gypsy
Telltale flapping in the breeze
Telling me to haul away
To haul away, to haul away, to haul away

′Cause you′ve got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You've got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You′ve got what I want, love
But I need a way home


'Cause broken homes take so long to fill
Broken bones take too long to heal
Bittersweet love disappears if you let it
I spent the best half of a year tryna get it
Overdue, that′s true, it's all fact
Trouble come knocking with a baseball bat
Shipping out, brother, to the Spice Route for
Southwest out where the trade winds blow
Let′s haul away, let's haul away
Let's haul away, let′s haul away

′Cause you've got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You′ve got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You've got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You′ve got what I want, love
But I need a way home
Red sails in a sunset took our need away home

Fair weather breaks up, I wake up
With chips at the gum round, I call out
Sky when we reach, boy, is jet black
You will not see I'm the quickest when I get back
Always let tricks know I′m Big Snow
That we ship the cargo, good lord
Money in my pocket, time on my hands
Slipping off the ship, still swaying like a slow dance
Haul away, we haul away
We haul away, we haul away


'Cause you've got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You′ve got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You′ve got what I want, love
But I need a way home
You've got what I want, love
But I need a way home
Red sails in a sunset took our need away home

Red sails in a sunset took our need away home
Red sails in a sunset took our need away home
Red sails in a sunset took our need away home
