Song Lyrics

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

(Bridge)

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
