lyrics

Come in, please, come in
Can't you hear that I'm pleading
Come in, please, come in
What's the point in proceeding
Oh what was I thinking
And where did I want to be
Well I couldn't say then because, because
I was lost at sea
No I couldn't say then because, because
I was lost at sea

La, la, la, la, la, la
I've been forty years at sea
La, la, la, la, la, la
And then what's become of me
So many places that I have roam
But all I want is to come on home

Had me a map and a compass
But they done me no good, no good
Had me a map and a compass
But I guess I misunderstood
Had my minutes and my seconds
But I could not find the degree
Well I couldn't say then because, because
I was lost at sea
No I couldn't say then because, because
I was lost at sea

Where are my stars
Where are my stars
The sky that I knew has turned black
Where are my stars
Where are my stars
You know that I want to come back
