the charles c. leary

banhart, devendra

i lost the gloves that my mother gave to me

while on my ways to the make believe sea

and i lost the rings that my lover gave to me

while on my ways to the red salt sea

dadaladoo-rargh

and i lost my ways to my happy pen club

and ended up where i still can't say but

i lost my favorite pen on the way

and i lost my friend but that couldn't be

i lost the friend who sang with me

i lost my son but that couldn't be

i lost the son who sat on my knee

i lost my man but that couldn't be

i lost the one who i let inside me

and i lost my friend that my love and i shared

while on my ways to the make believe cares

dadaladoo---rargh

and i lost the tunes that stuck to my ears

while on my ways to the make believe hears

and i saw sapiena she sang to the sea

the only person left on the island was me

dadaladoo---rargh

and i love the man who took care of me

he owns the ship the charles c. leary

yes i love the man who took care of me
