Richard Rodgers
A Ship Without a Sail
[Verse]
I don't know what day it is
Or if it's dark or fair
I guess 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
[Chorus]
All alone, all at sea
Why does nobody care for me?
When there is no love to hold my love
Why is my heart so frail?
Like a ship without a sail
[Bridge]
Out on the ocean
Sailors can use a chart
I'm on the ocean
Guided by just a lonely heart
[Chorus]
Still alone, still at sea
Still, there's no one to care for me
When there is no hand to hold my hand
Life is a loveless tale
For a ship without a sail
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I'm still alone, I'm still at sea
Still, there's no one to care for me
When there is no hand to hold my hand
Life is a loveless tale
For a ship without a sail
