Lyrics Devendra Banhart

Devendra Banhart

The Charles C. Leary

I lost the gloves that my mother gave to me

While on my ways through the make believe sea

And I lost the rings that my lover gave to me

While on my ways to the red salt sea

And I lost my ways and my happy pen ???

And ended up where I still can't say but

I lost my baby red pen on the way

And I lost my friend but that couldn't be

I lost the friend who sang with me

I lost my son but that couldn't be

I lost the son who sat on my knees

And I lost my man but that couldn't be

I lost the one who I let inside me

And I lost my friend that my love and I shared

While on my ways to the make believe care

And I lost the tunes that stuck to my ears

While on my ways to the make believe hears

And I saw saltina she sank to the sea

The only person left on the island was me

And I love the man who took care of me

He owns the ship, the charles c. leary

Yes I love the man who took care of me

He sails the world on the charles c. leary
