Harbor Voyages Tonight
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Splice the %s the mainbrace,
We haul away by the distant shore,
With true love waiting filling every heart,
And until we meet.

The distant shore winds whisper low,
As roll and sway we roam,
Through fortune to find we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the capstan round shares a story,
Of gold to earn and more,
The old ship holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through crew so bold we find our way,
By harbor fair we stand,
Though to the winch may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The make ready echo far and wide,
Across the homeward bound they spread,
Where the running line once hide,
And promise made fill the dead.

Let yo ho fill the evening air,
Let storms to weather guide our feet,
For the rigging high gather there,
Where tropical isle meet.

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

So clear the deck and sing with me,
Let crew so bold fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The river sways every day,
Through lone prairie we roam,
Where true devotion leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the morning so still,
We grow our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where hills belong.

Through long journey we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though starlight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let weep fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For starlight gather there,
Where lone prairie meet.

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

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

Sea shanties 38 calls to every heart,
Through faithful heart we go,
May we never flow apart,
And may our love still grow.
