Tekst piosenki
And the ship sets the sail
They’ve lived the tale
To carry to the shore
Straining at the oars
Or staring from the rail
And the sea bids farewell
She waves in swells
And sends them on their way
Time has been her pay
And time will have to tell
Oh, soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
And the anchor hits the sand
The hungry hands
Have tied them to the port
The hour will be short
For leisure on the land
And the girls scent the air
They seem so fair
With paint on their face
Soft is their embrace
To lead them up the stairs
Soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
In the room dark and dim
Touch of skin
He asks her of her name
She answers with no shame
And not a sense of sin
'Til the fingers draw the blinds
Sip of wine
The cigarette of doubt
The candle is blown out
The darkness is so kind
Oh, soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
And the shadows frame the light
Same old sight
Thrill has blown away
Now all alone they lay
Two strangers in the night
Till his heart skips a beat
He’s on his feet
To shipmates he must join
She’s counting up the coins
He’s swallowed by the street
Oh, soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
In the bar hangs a cloud
The whiskey’s loud
There’s laughter in their eyes
The lonely in disguise
Are clinging to the crowd
And the bottle fills the glass
The haze is fast
He’s trembling for the taste
Of passion gone to waste
In memories of the past
Oh, soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
In the alley, red with rain
Cry of pain
For love was but a smile
Teasing all the while
Now dancing down the drain
'Til the boys reach the dock
They gently mock
And lift him on their backs
Lay him on his rack
And leave beneath the light
Oh, soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
And the ship sets the sail
They’ve lived the tale
To carry from the shore
Straining at the oars
Or staring from the rail
And the sea bids farewell
She waves in swells
And sends them on their way
Time has been her pay
And time will have to tell
Oh, soon your
Sailing will be over
Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor

Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
And the anchor hits the sand
The hungry hands
Przywiązali ich do portu.
Godzina będzie krótka.
Do wypoczynku na lądzie
A dziewczyny pachną powietrzem
# They seem so fair #
Z farbą na twarzy
"Soft is their embrace"
Żeby poprowadzić ich po schodach.
Wkrótce twój

Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
W pokoju ciemno i ciemno
Dotyk skóry
Pyta ją o imię.
Ona odpowiada bez wstydu.
A nie poczucie grzechu
'Til the fingers draw the rolety
Łyk wina
Papieros wątpliwości
Świeca jest zdmuchnięta.
Ciemność jest taka miła.
Oh, soon your

Two strangers in the night
Aż jego serce skacze z rytmu
On
Do towarzyszy musi dołączyć
Liczy monety
Jest połknięty przez ulicę.

Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
W barze wisi Chmura
The whiskey ' s loud
W ich oczach słychać śmiech.
The lonely in disguise
Trzymają się tłumu
A butelka wypełnia szklankę
Mgła jest szybka.
Drży dla smaku.
Of passion gone to waste
In memories of the past

Come and take
The pleasures of the harbor
W alejce, czerwone od deszczu
Cry of pain
Bo miłość była tylko uśmiechem
"Teasing all the while"
Teraz tańczę w rynsztoku.
'Til the boys reach the dock
Delikatnie drwią.
I podnieść go na plecach
Połóż go na jego stojaku.
And leave beneath the light
