Saint Elmo's blue He's lost his sailing shoes He couldn't believe it when he heard the news They took away his fire The saint's retired He walked down to the water Stopped a passing sailor And said please don't pray to Peter You know he stole my fire He said he was a saint but he's a liar He flew over the ocean To see if it was true Stopped at every fishing boat And tried to light the sail To no avail He turned around and he headed home Still bleeding from his wounds Wondering just how much does A saint has to prove What more can I do? Saint Elmo's Blue He's got a lot of time and nothing to do Saint Elmo's blue
