Tom Catmull & the Clerics Sail on gone Lyrics

Carla was cut like a silver knife
charmin the pants off the boys at night

and she told sean, anothers hippies son
that we got love and weed and legs to run

it wasn't exactly what he had in mind
but her charm and form had struck him dumb and blind

and like the darkness overcomes the day
deals are struck and signed and sealed away

say goodbye to your reservation
say goodbye casue she's a pretty girl
and kiss the one who stands beside you
but curse the whole d___ blessed world
there's nothin but lines on the road ahead
kind and cruel words said and then unsaid
sail on gone, sail on gone, sail on

wedding vows and a diamond ring
a thousand miles and you can hear them sing

but cancer took her in a quiet year
like rust horizon to a blue frontier

and sometimes hearts move in a funny way
they beat to stop and leave a world to wait

and I got nothin' but my time to kill
and a little boy with Carlas' iron will

say goodbye to you preservation
but not goodbye to your pretty girl
and kiss the one who stands beside you
but curse the whole d___ blessed world
there's nothin but lines on the road ahead
kind and cruel words said and then unsaid
sail on gone, sail on gone, sail on
