Lyrics Bill Callahan – Seagull
Text:
A barroom may entice
A seagull like me
Right off the sea
Right off the sea
And into
The barroom
The barroom
The barroom
Barroom, barroom!
And let go
Yeah let go of the trapeze
And melt the snow of dream river
I wonder if I’ll ever wake up
I mean really wake up
Wake up and wake you too
First thing I will do
I will wake you too
How long have I been gone
How long have I been traveling
How tired have I been and
How far have I got
In circling
Circling
With all the tolls we pay
We’ll own the highway someday
With all the tolls we pay
We’ll own the highway someday
And the weight of the world slips away
And the seagull falls back on the sea
