Mary Chapin Carpenter - The End Of My Pirate Days Lyrics
The night is soft and silent, new moon at my doorTheres nothing near as quiet as the light Im looking forLast time that it appeared he way lying next to meLast time I felt his near to whispered ecstasyAndThose who need adventureThey can sail the seven seasAnd those who search for treasureThey must live on grander dreamWe rose and fell just like the tides;He filled my heart and soulAnd I buried all my dreams for someone else to findIn my pirate daysThis would is kinder to the kind that wont look backThey are the chosen few, among us now, unbowed somehowAnd one day he turned to me and before I took one breathI would only see his shadow in what light was leftAnd those who need adventureThey can sail the seven seasAnd those who search for treasureThey must live on grander dreamsAnd if Ive seen his face since then its only been in dreams my friendSince I cam to the end of my pirate daysAnd if Ive called his name since then, its only been in dreams my friendAnd so I came to the end of my pirate days
