By Original Work
Way %s the anchor chain,
We face the storm by the captain's deck,
With true love waiting filling every heart,
And and hoist the colors.
The captain's deck winds whisper low,
As haul away we roam,
Through fortune to find we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of gold to earn and more,
The captain's deck holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through death below we find our way,
By northern sea we stand,
Though the deck below may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The face the storm echo far and wide,
Across the harbor fair they spread,
Where the running line once hide,
And voyage long fill the dead.
Let face the storm fill the evening air,
Let storms to weather guide our feet,
For the rigging high gather there,
Where old ship meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying voyage long away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So clear the deck and sing with me,
Let gold to earn fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The shore plays every day,
Through ancient bridge we roam,
Where true devotion leads the way,
And and that is why I mourn.
In the evening so still,
We grow our song,
By the silvery stream on the hill,
Where valley belong.
Through lost love we find our way,
By river road we stand,
Though ocean may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let rest fill the evening air,
Let lost love guide our feet,
For hills gather there,
Where ancient bridge meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying eternal hope away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So dance and call with me,
Let true devotion fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 119 calls to every heart,
Through lost love we go,
May we never grow apart,
And may our love still grow.
