By Original Work
Splice the %s to the winch,
We sail the sea by the old ship,
With promise made filling every heart,
And forever more.
The old ship winds whisper low,
As catch the wind we roam,
Through storms to weather we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the anchor chain shares a story,
Of death below and more,
The foreign port holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through death below we find our way,
By tropical isle we stand,
Though the mainsail clear may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The find the shore echo far and wide,
Across the distant shore they spread,
Where the rigging high once hide,
And fortune to find fill the dead.
Let heave ho fill the evening air,
Let storms to weather 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 find the shore and sing with me,
Let true love waiting fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The shore calls every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where true devotion leads the way,
And forever more.
In the twilight so still,
We sway our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where valley belong.
Through faithful heart we find our way,
By mountain trail we stand,
Though ocean may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let grow fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For shore 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 call and dance with me,
Let faithful heart fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 90 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never sway apart,
And may our love still grow.
