I Could Have Been A Sailor Lyrics - Singles - Peter Allen

I'm a happy man 

I made my choice in life 

I chose to settle down 

I chose to take a wife 

And I take pleasure in my quiet 

Hearth and happy home 

I never gave my heart 

Its chance to roam 

I could have been a sailor 

And sailed the seven seas 

The wind in my face all day 

Can you taste the salty breeze? 

I could have been a lover 

Watchin' waves before me part 

But I settled for safer harbors of my heart

I'm a lucky man 

I'm the envy of my peers 

I never ask for favors 

Oh, and I never show my fears 

Surrounded by too many friends 

I am a one-man band 

With all the trappings of a life 

Lived second-hand 

I could have been a sailor 

Rollin' through the night 

My sails before the wind 

Where the star's my only light 

I could have been a dreamer 

Yeah, but dreams just fall apart 

So, I settled for safer harbors of my heart

And I take pleasure in my quiet 

Hearth and happy home 

I never gave my heart 

Its chance to roam 

I could have been a sailor 

And sailed the seven seas 

Is the wind in your face all day 

And can you taste the salty breeze? 

I could have been a dreamer 

And watch the waves before me part 

But I settled for safer harbors 

Oh, sailor, sailed the seven seas 

Is the wind in your face all day? 

I can taste the salty breeze 

Oh lover, I can see the waves before you part 

Well, I settled for safer harbors of my heart, of my heart
