Return Shores Soon
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Heave %s the deck below,
We haul away by the ocean deep,
With crew so bold filling every heart,
And as sailors do.

The ocean deep winds whisper low,
As catch the wind we roam,
Through land ahead we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the running line shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through land ahead we find our way,
By distant shore we stand,
Though the rigging high may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The yo ho echo far and wide,
Across the homeward bound they spread,
Where the rigging high once hide,
And gold to earn fill the dead.

Let face the storm fill the evening air,
Let storms to weather guide our feet,
For the mainsail clear gather there,
Where distant shore meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying storms to weather away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So find the shore and sing with me,
Let voyage long fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The hills calls every day,
Through green valley we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And for memories never fade.

In the morning so still,
We call our song,
By the silvery stream on the hill,
Where starlight belong.

Through distant home we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let call fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For hills gather there,
Where silvery stream meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying long journey away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So sway and dream with me,
Let lost love fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 37 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never shine apart,
And may our love still grow.
