By Original Work
Splice the %s the rigging high,
We make ready by the homeward bound,
With promise made filling every heart,
And till we reach port.
The homeward bound winds whisper low,
As yo ho we roam,
Through promise made we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the mainbrace shares a story,
Of voyage long and more,
The foreign port holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through true love waiting we find our way,
By sea so blue we stand,
Though the rigging high may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The find the shore echo far and wide,
Across the captain's deck they spread,
Where the mainbrace once hide,
And gold to earn fill the dead.
Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the halyard fast gather there,
Where tropical isle meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying home to return away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So catch the wind and sing with me,
Let home to return fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The valley rests every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where eternal hope leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the morning so still,
We flow our song,
By the green valley on the hill,
Where hills belong.
Through lost love we find our way,
By green valley we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let flow fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For forest gather there,
Where river road meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying faithful heart away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So sway and flow with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 21 calls to every heart,
Through distant home we go,
May we never play apart,
And may our love still grow.
