Taupin, Bernie – Sail Me Away lyrics

Lestat: When stars are born, are they cast out
To wander cold and lonely lost in space?
A loveless point of light that can't return
Forever fixed within one place

When love is lost and dreams are cast
Like bruised and battered pieces left to die,
When hands that reach out are betrayed
How can my tortured soul survive?

There's only thing left
And that's the one thing that you needed most of all,
For the freedom that you gained
Is the loss that led me aimless to the shore.

And I'm borne high on these waves
Swept by the wind and alone.
Oh, sail me away, carry me back to my home.
I'm tired, I've been torn,
A cruel, wretched storm churns like a gale in my bones.
Oh sail me away, carry me back to my home.

These scars run deep,
The future holds a hunger for your innocence
That passed away.
Your callous shadows mock
And make it clear some things
Were not enough to make you stay.

The moment time stands still
Is the moment that the writing's on the wall.
The words are clear as ringing bells,
That pride was present right before the fall.

And I'm borne high on these waves
Swept by the wind and alone.
Oh, sail me away, carry me back to my home.
I'm tired, I've been torn,
A cruel, wretched storm churns like a gale in my bones.
Oh sail me away, carry me back to my home.
