Calypso (Live)

歌詞

My name is Calypso and I have lived alone I live on an island and I waken to the dawn A long time ago I watched him struggle with the sea I knew that he was drowning and I brought him into me Now today come morning light He sails away after one last night I let him go My name is Calypso My garden overflows Thick and wild and hidden is the sweetness there that grows My hair blows long as I sing into the wind I tell of nights where I could taste the salt on his skin Salt of the waves and of tears And while he pulled away I kept him here for years Now I let him go My name is Calypso I have let him go In the dawn he sails away to be gone forever more And the waves will take him in again But he'll know their ways now I will stand upon the shore With a clean heart and my song in the wind The sand may sting my feet and the sky will burn It's a lonely time ahead I do not ask him to return I let him go I let him go
