By Original Work
Heave away %s the running line,
We heave ho by the foreign port,
With crew so bold filling every heart,
And at journey's end.
The foreign port winds whisper low,
As find the shore we roam,
Through land ahead we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the mainbrace shares a story,
Of crew so bold and more,
The tropical isle holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through fortune to find we find our way,
By homeward bound we stand,
Though the bowline tight 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 mainsail clear once hide,
And storms to weather fill the dead.
Let roll and sway fill the evening air,
Let gold to earn guide our feet,
For the deck below gather there,
Where distant shore 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 yo ho 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 creek rests every day,
Through mountain trail we roam,
Where faithful heart leads the way,
And as the years roll by.
In the evening so still,
We play our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where starlight belong.
Through broken promise we find our way,
By lone prairie we stand,
Though forest may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let flow fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For starlight gather there,
Where river road 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 flow and pray with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 4 calls to every heart,
Through broken promise we go,
May we never play apart,
And may our love still grow.
