You know I once thought that to end all wars
I only had to run and hide
But since I set sail and stole the devil’s red tail
I dream of borderlands where the brotherhood just can’t come
Tell me where was I going to run
My father was a sailor
Who sailed the deep blue sea
For the mermaids that had claimed his heart
It was the old man’s wish to live down low
And the songs we sing
And the joy they bring
 Somehow we’re all connected with that feeling of spring
Tell me where was I going to run
And my sister, she was a dancer
She danced in pretty blue dresses
But the one she claimed had already set sail
To where the others go and where the little boy looses it’s name
Tell me where was I going to run
And my mother, she was a painter
She painted my deep blue sea
But she could never, never find
Where all my brothers and sisters hide
We all had to sink down low
And the songs we sing
And the joy they bring
Somehow we’re all connected with that feeling of spring
Tell me where was I going to run
And the songs we sing
And the joy they bring
Somehow we’re all connected with that feeling of spring
Tell me where was I going to run
