Lyrics

shanty

I was a junkman A candle burning Settled over When the night rolled in I'm waiting for you And I choose you Your eyes are the only When the night rolled in In the night I'm coming over Your eyes are the only When the night rolled in Our time is almost up Nothing keeps me still Feeling a change in the air When the night rolled in
