lyrics

Once I was a deckhand on a silken sailing boat

I could lay back and tell the stars to watch us wherever you are
And wherever I am as I'd slowly float

The wind in the shrouds whispered low...

Ooh ooh, Ooh ooh

Once I was ridin' on a Silver Vista train

I could watch for the clouds to part and wait for the moon to start
To glimmer through the gray, sparkle through the rain
Heard whistle whinin' over the panoramic panes

Ooh ooh, Ooh ooh

Once I walkin' alone up in the hills
Climbed above the tree line, looked to Orion's eyes
The marmots and the rocks stood still

And the lonesome wolf cry soared wherever it willed...

Ooh ooh, Ooh ooh

I can see Orion, but he don't say a thing
You can see Orion
And he can hear you sing

Ooh ooh, Ooh ooh ...
