For Staying Here Lyrics by The Mother Hips

2022

Im putting on my sailing shoes
And I swear im bound for Veracruz
Because I've never been and that's no excuse for staying here
There ain't no place like the open sea
At least that's what it seems like to me
But I've never been and that's no excuse for staying here

Who would ever want me with sailing shoes on my feet?
What could ever stop me from seeing what I could be?

You stood at the helm on a desperate run
To gеt us back where we startеd from
The wind did rise and the sea, it did run
You were playing. I was praying

Who would ever want me with sailing shoes on my feet?
What could ever stop me from seeing what I could be?
