A Salty Dog - Too Much Between Us

There`s you, you`re sleeping over there
whilst me I`m sitting here
with so much sea between us
I can`t make it much more clear
There`ll be no time for crying
We won`t make it more than six
I could change my plea to guilty
but I don`t think it would stick
Still those other ratings far too easy to despise
You`ve said so much in silence now I truly am disguised

Let him who fears his heart alone
stand up and make a speech
For him perhaps an emperor`s throne
if he could only speak
Far too few and far to follow
For shame I`ll heed the cry
Be with me when I need a drink
be with me when I die
Still those other ratings far too easy to despise
You`ve said so much in silence now indeed I am disguised
