From the recording The Grand Voyage
Lyrics
Lisbon
Karine Ste-Marie, 2018
He said « don’t play me
Cause I’m drunk on you
Now if you’re fakin’ it baby
You better tell me soon »
Wide opened scars
Carryin’ a painful past
Death of the heart
Maybe we can bring it back
And he says ouuuhhh
Girl I need your love
Yeah he says ouuhhhh
Darling you need to trust
They told me he
Was focused on himself
His heart would never
Beat for anybody else
But baby’s opening up
And he’s crawling in
Deep through my skin
Right to my blood
Chorus
Sailing to Lisbon
Is this where the story ends?
Sailing to Lisbon
Hold me closer don’t pretend
Chorus
