Ruby June - Sleepy Sailors Lyrics

Wake up from your slumber
You've been gone too long
I was hoping I could save you with a song
And as I sit here, staring at the sea
I'm reminded of how fickle life can be
I'm reminded of how easily we can get lost at sea

And when the sun is calling
And without warning you pack your bags and hit the road
Pour your heart into the ocean
Let the waves wash you clean
But the waves are so much colder than they seem

Wake up now, all you sleepy sailors
Wake up and sail your ships back to shore
The waters may have engulfed you
Swallowed you whole
But it's time for you to come home
Said it's time for you to come home
So don't let go

It's the crashing of the waves
And the wind that's calling your name
It's the crashing of the waves
And the wind that's calling your name
And I wonder when last you gave your mother a call
And I wonder if you even know which way is home

So wake up now, all you sleepy sailors
Wake up and sail your ships back to shore
The waters may have engulfed you
Swallowed you whole
But it's time for you to come home
Said it's time for you to come home
Said it's time for you to come home
Said it's TIME

Wake up now, all you sleepy sailors
Wake up and sail your ships back to shore
The waters may have engulfed you
Swallowed you whole
But it's time for you to come home
Said it's time for you to come home
Said it's time for me to come home
So don't let go

Don't let go

Don't let go, don't let go, oh
