 Riff 1X
Curse  at your captain, and stow  me below.
Hold  me amongst all your cards.
Oh  we were sea bound, and  aimless at best.
Clutching  to the wheel, and those charts.
But  that sea is just a gambler at heart.
Oh  there we were, and the  sun hit the starboard.
And  we were as free as we could be.
We  waited for land. Oh we  waited for the
We  aimed to stay calm and cool.
And  that sea is just a gambling fool.
Come  to me Mary come.
You  know you once were Queen.
The  ocean is,  holding all  the Kings.
Tossed  aside the  weary.
How  I'd love to steer you straight into the water.
While  those daunting clouds above begin to pour.
And  when were found,  Ah we'll kiss  that ground.
And  roll around  on that  lovers'  floor.
Come  to me Mary come.
You  know you once were Queen.
The  ocean is,  holding all  the Kings.
Tossed aside  the weary.
The  ocean is,  holding  everything.
Tossed aside  the weary.
Oh  that dreadful gambling sea.
