I've got an old watch with a wind up key The face is a ship upon the sea A bold strong ship with a strong mast head A reminder that Odysseus ain't dead I'll take it to the jeweler soon To fix the sprung main spring It shows the cycles of the moon But not what life will bring I'll sail through this storm like the rest With spinnaker and main No guts no glory for the best Without pain there's no gain Right now the watch lies in the box Among my buried treasure The lace and rings and pretty rocks That used to give me pleasure Tomorrow marks the fourth great year I've been freed from your chain I've been do much happier here Despite the storms and rain |
