Here I am, lost in the wind
Round in circles sailing.
Like a ship that never come in,
standing by myself.
Sing a sad song for a good man,
sing a sad song for me.
A sad song for a sailor a thousand miles from the sea.
Here I am alone on the plain,
the sun'[s going down, it's starting to rain,
Poppa, we'll go sailing.
-Texas Girl at the Funeral of her Father
