Sailor Lyrics

I'm not a sailor
I'm not so strong out of my shoes
Dragging like anchors

Over the ocean
Pearls in the sky strung 'round the moon
Pointing to you

So I'll sail till morning
Or I'll sail till I
Carried to you tonight

I'm not a sailor
But I'll spend the night out on the sea
Out on the sea


And I'll sail till morning
Or I'll sail till I
Carried to you tonight
Tonight, tonight

Hem

There are at least two bands by this name.

1. A Brooklyn, New York-based band who fuse together a mix of traditional American music with contemporary styles. The group draw influences from a variety of musical genres, particularly folk, country, alt-country, americana and rock.

Hem are sometimes described as 'chamber-folk', due to their combination of orchestral and folk instrumentation; some critics have also tagged them as 'countrypolitan'.

Band members include Sally Ellyson (vocals), Daniel Messé (piano, accordion, glockenspiel), Gary Maurer (guitar, mandolin), Steve Curtis (guitar, mandolin, banjo, backing vocals), Catherine Popper (bass guitar), Mark Brotter (drums), Bob Hoffnar (pedal steel guitar), Heather Zimmerman (violin), and later Dawn Landes (backing vocals, glockenspiel).

3. Alias of British producer Geiom. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
