John Cale — China Sea lyrics

Lyrics

Seems like you’re always dreaming
Your mind is wandering far away
Thinking 'bout your boy in China
Junkie on the China Sea
Oh your mother told me so You’re gonna be all right
Don’t let your heart get broken
You know how much he loved to sail
Remember how you heard that steamer whistle blowing
Made him cry all day
Oh, mama, she done told me so You’re gonna be all right
Oooh
I can hear that whistle
I can hear it blowing
I can hear that whistle
I can hear it blowing
I can hear …
