One
R. Winchester Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
All the ships asleep
Maybe one cold watchman
Walks a lonely beat
Way out on the water
A ship is under sail
Leaving wavy starlight
And a dreamer in her trail
I wave bye bye
I pray God speed
I wish lovely weather
More luck than you need
You'll only sail in circles
So there's no need to cry
No, I'll see you again one day
And then I waved bye bye
The sailing ship reminds me
Of a certain girl
Who left a certain dreamer
To sail into the world
I've very friendly post-cards
From very far away
But they just remind me
Of a certain day
I wave bye bye
I pray God speed
I wish lovely weather
And all the luck that you need
You'll only sail in circles
So there's no need to cry
No, I'll see you again one day
And then I waved bye bye

Just out in the harbor
Looking out into the harbor
All the ships asleep
The ships are dormant
Maybe one cold watchman
There may be a watchman keeping vigil
Walks a lonely beat
Patrolling alone with no company
Way out on the water
Far out at sea
A ship is under sail
A vessel is cruising
Leaving wavy starlight
Creating a trail of shimmering light
And a dreamer in her trail
With a dreamer following in her wake
I wave bye bye
Bidding farewell with a wave
I pray God speed
Wishing for a safe and swift journey
I wish lovely weather
Hoping for favorable conditions
More luck than you need
Wishing an abundance of good fortune
You'll only sail in circles
Not making any progress
So there's no need to cry
No reason to shed tears
No, I'll see you again one day
We will reunite someday
And then I waved bye bye
Departing with one final wave
The sailing ship reminds me
The ship evokes memories
Of a certain girl
Of a particular young woman
Who left a certain dreamer
Who departed from a particular dreamer
To sail into the world
To venture out into the world
I've very friendly post-cards
I have received kind postcards
From very far away
From a remote location
But they just remind me
But they trigger memories
Of a certain day
Of a particular day
And all the luck that you need
Wishing for all the good fortune required
