Judy Collins - Shipwrecked Mariner Lyrics

Shipwrecked Mariner Song Lyrics
Shipwrecked Mariner by Judy Collins You came to my bed like a shipwrecked mariner
Singing your songs of love and paradise
Islands and oceans shimmered in your eyes
I could see vast horizons in your skies

You said you could sail us all around the world
Where we would have the dreams our hearts could hold
Angelfish sparkled, sunlight was unfurled
Silver and blue skies, all the days were gold

There would be starry skies and ecstasy
We would live all our lives upon the sea
There were no monsters there to come at night
We would live with no fear and with no fight

So when the storms came down upon our dream
You said I'd got it wrong and we would drown
I should have seen the shipwreck in your eyes
I should have understood your cloudy skies

I never will forget that brilliant day
I'll never give away the sunlit rays
Though you had promised me another world
I found my flag was mine to be unfurled

There would be starry skies and ecstasy
We would live all our lives upon the sea
There were no monsters there to come at night
We would live with no fear and with no fight

You came to my bed like a shipwrecked mariner
Singing your songs of love and paradise
Islands and oceans shimmered in your skies
I could see vast horizons in your eyes

You were the shipwreck I had to survive
You gave me all the strength to stay alive

You were the shipwreck I had to survive
You gave me all the strength I need to stay alive

You gave me the strength I need to stay alive

You came to my bed like a shipwrecked mariner
