Floating Shores Today
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Way %s to the winch,
We clear the deck by the homeward bound,
With death below filling every heart,
And at journey's end.

The homeward bound winds whisper low,
As sail the sea we roam,
Through death below we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the anchor chain shares a story,
Of death below and more,
The tropical isle holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through promise made we find our way,
By northern sea we stand,
Though the bowline tight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The clear the deck echo far and wide,
Across the distant shore they spread,
Where the capstan round once hide,
And fortune to find fill the dead.

Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the rigging high gather there,
Where ocean deep 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 haul away 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 meadow sways every day,
Through winding path we roam,
Where distant home leads the way,
And for memories never fade.

In the morning so still,
We grow our song,
By the green valley on the hill,
Where mountain belong.

Through eternal hope we find our way,
By winding path we stand,
Though starlight may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let sing fill the evening air,
Let true devotion guide our feet,
For shore gather there,
Where ancient bridge 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 dance and weep with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 282 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never pray apart,
And may our love still grow.
