Amos Lee - Mama Sail to Me lyrics

Tore our old place down Building turned from gray to brown The kids they had to move cross town Too much rent to pay Well you took that chance Knew she gave her hand you downs All the way to Paris France Babe I never thought you'd stay Oh mama sail to me Oh mama sail to me Oh mama sail to me Across this great wide sea Now are friends are gone No more time for coffee shops Get in high upon rooftops Things change with other mouths to feed And this last cigarette No more time for tears or regret All your memories just set My whole damn world on fire Oh mama sail to me Oh mama sail to me Oh mama sail to me Across this great wide sea And that last time you wrote Picture in your blue pea coat Always just as sweet as short Baby I never thought you'd stay Oh mama sail to me Oh mama sail to me Oh mama sail to me Across this great wide sea
