Up And Gone

Cat Power

Want to rule the outlands

And I want to rule the sea

But if you're not coming back

I will sleep eternally



I don't want no heavy dogmas

And pearls crush my teeth

I just want my sailor

To sail back to me



The captain has a treasure

(he) says I hold the key

Only roses swim and blossom to you and me



Want to rule the outlands

And I want to rule the sea

But if you're not coming back

I will sleep eternally



Every time you're up and gone

I'll be up and gone

Just as long as I can



Every time he be up and gone

He be up and gone

Just as long as you tell me



Want to rule the outlands

And I want to rule the sea

But if he's not coming back

I will sleep eternally
