A Ship Without a Sail - George Shearing

I don’t know what day it is Or if it’s dark or fair

Somehow, that’s just the way it is And I don’t really care

I go to this or that place

I seem alive and well

My head is just a hat place

My breast an empty shell

And I’ve a faded dream to sell

All alone, all at sea

Why does nobody care for me?

When there’s no love to hold my love

Why is my heart so frail?

Like a ship without a sail.

Out on the ocean,

Sailors can use a chart

I’m on the ocean

Guided by just a lonely heart

Still alone, still at sea

Still there’s no one to care for me When there’s no hand to hold my hand

Life is a loveless tale

For a ship without a sail

Still alone, still at sea

Still there’s no one to care for me When there’s no hand to hold my hand

Life is a loveless tale

For a ship without a sail
