Seagull Songtext
von Bill Callahan

A barroom may entice
A seagull like me
Right off the sea
Right off the sea

And into the barroom
The barroom
The barroom
Barroom, barroom

And let go
Yeah, let go off the trapeze
And melt the snow of dream river
Dream river
Dream river
River, river


I wonder if I′ll ever wake up
I mean really wake up
Wake up and wake you too
First thing I will do
I will wake you too

How long have I been gone?
How long have I been traveling?
And how tired have I been?
And how far have I got in circling?
And circling
And circling

With all the tolls we pay
We'll own the highway someday
With all the tolls we pay
We′ll own the highway someday

And the weight of the world slips away
Slips away
And the seagull falls back on the sea
