i’ve got ten sails in my travelin’ soul
some take me fast and some take me slow
fifteen knots with a bottle of gin
and i’m on my way again
One- is for the times i’ve spent
one is for the love i’ve lent
one is called Fortune, one is called Loss
one for the paths i’ve never crossed
i’ve got ten sails in my travelin’ soul
some fly high and some fly low
i don’t know what i might see
baby, don’t wait up for me
one- for the River of Time
one is for my piece of mind
one for my trouble, one for my pain
one will carry me home again
ten sails in my travelin’ soul
some are new and some are old
twenty lines of a mariner’s rime
so i’ll remember mine.
