Santa Maria

The Frames

   
1. Let me off of this boat
   I'm sick of this ride
   the world is heading ever southward
   and I can't stay in here
   
2. And you're lying awake
   away on your side
   the feeling comes in waves and burns us
   and I don't wanna die
   
3. From your slippery hands
   to the line of your throat
   the fever now consumes us both
   in a fire now we will go

R: Santa Maria
   why did you have to go 
   Santa Maria
   stop
   one day we will know

   
4. In a bowing of heads and a passing of hands
   and all we thought they would understand
   is lost and they won't know
   
5. And what have we left
   it's all that we got
   there is no x to mark our spot
   what's past is done and gone

R: Santa Maria
   why did you have to burn
   Santa Maria
   one day you will learn
