    Lyrics
    On waves of love my heart is breaking
    And stranger still my self control I can't rely on anymore
    New tide, surprise, my world is changing
    Within this frame an ocean swell behind the smile, I know it well
    Beneath a lover's moon I'm waiting
    I am the pilot of the storms, adrift in pleasure I may drown
    I built this ship it is my making
    And furthermore, my self control, I can't rely on anymore
    I know why
    I know why
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Turn this boat around, back to my loving ground
    Oh, no, oh, no
    Who claims that no man is an island?
    While I land up in jeopardy, more distant from you by degrees
    I walk this shore in isolation
    And at my feet eternity draws ever sweeter plans for me
    I know why
    I know why

      being battered by the oceans waves. He's safe on land and every new day is better than the last.

      Wow.......not that you think the song is great or anything like that. I was lucky enough to love it the first time around. The wow is that you actually heard it on a radio station. I love that it's in my rotation of mix songs. I really like Principle of Moment's as well. Plant's solo efforts are what introduced me to how great Led Zeppelin is. I was just a touch too young to catch them the first time around. I was just beginning my musical experimentation in the early 80's and I always thought of them as more my parents age so I never gave them a thought. Glad I got up to speed......LOL.

I have front row seats and he walked out wearing this tight outfit with a perfect body his muscles were bulging and he looked so hot. Then he put on the most incredible show I've ever seen. I've actually seen Page and Plant and Led Zeppelin after that and his solo performance was so much better. I still can't believe how good he looked. He was so so sexy

    "Ship Of Fools"
    On waves of love my heart is breaking
    And stranger still my self control I can't rely on anymore
    New tides surprise - my world it's changing
    Within this frame an ocean swells - behind this smile I know it well
    Beneath a lover's moon I'm waiting
    I am the pilot of the storm - adrift in pleasure I may drown
    I built this ship - it is my making
    And furthermore my self control I can't rely on anymore
    I know why - I know why
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Turn this boat around - back to my loving ground
    Who claims that no man is an island
    While I land up in jeopardy - more distant from you by degrees
    I walk this shore in isolation
    And at my feet eternity draws ever sweeter plans for me
    I know why - I know why
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Crazy on a ship of fools
    Turn this boat around - back to my loving ground

He was extremely kind, funny, rarely drank, smoked or used foul language. He carried this cool wallet from the 70s. Looked like something he'd picked up at a festival. Definitely handmade.

I had a blast and they sounded far better than the CD versions I sold down the river. For what it's worthy, Now & Zen cranked up, is a chunk of pop-rock no serious music listener can sneeze at. It's a logical progression for one of rocks finest performers. You always get the impression while listening to Plant sol, that he has total command of the fantasy!

    Robert's solo work is a demanding but also very exciting music. Masterpiece.

    Reminds me of days of crushing isolation being homeless or in a mental hospital living a life devoid of meaning. Listed to the song then as well as now. I'm seventeen years sober now with a master's degree and helping those who are in the situation I was once in. Being able to relate to the song brings a strange validation. None of my co workers know my history.

    So.. I was a teenager when this song came out. My wife called me a tall cool one in the 80's. To this day we love this album.

      I agree with you on that. It was a truly great tour-the Now and Zen tour of '88. Saw him at the Costa Mesa Amphitheatre. The place is still in ruins after he leveled the bleachers.
