The Lost Buoys
I worshiped at the altar until I could believeIn Mauritius and in Malta until they made us leaveAnd so we cross the border with promises of changeDubai, the Cooks, GibraltarThe answer stays the sameAnd if I tried to explainThen you wouldn't understandYou know we'd do it againIf we ever get the chanceCalling out like a beacon, calling out like a buoyAt the gates of haven we rowAnjouan on to Aruba, sending us to SingaporeAt the gates of haven we rowAnd now we float away fromThose islands we called homeOur Oceania havens to flood, to fail, to foamAnd if I tried to explainThen you wouldn't understandYou can bury us in blameBut you'll never get the chanceSongtexteCalling out like a beacon, calling out like a buoyAt the gates of haven we rowGoing back to San Marino, going back to MonacoAt the gates of haven we rowLooking after friends and familyI'm looking out for number oneWe took the risk, we'll take the richesWe don't care what you think we've doneWhere's your reward for being selfless?What's your reward for being slow?We're going back to San MarinoWe're going back to Monaco
