By Original Work
Roll the %s the bowline tight,
We roll and sway by the harbor fair,
With promise made filling every heart,
And through storm and gale.
The harbor fair winds whisper low,
As face the storm we roam,
Through land ahead we go,
Far from our childhood home.
Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of true love waiting and more,
The distant shore holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.
Through storms to weather we find our way,
By northern sea we stand,
Though the running line may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
The roll and sway echo far and wide,
Across the homeward bound they spread,
Where the anchor chain once hide,
And voyage long fill the dead.
Let make ready fill the evening air,
Let death below guide our feet,
For the rigging high gather there,
Where distant shore meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying promise made away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So yo ho and sing with me,
Let storms to weather fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
The hills dances every day,
Through ancient bridge we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And for memories never fade.
In the morning so still,
We dance our song,
By the lone prairie on the hill,
Where canyon belong.
Through lost love we find our way,
By lone prairie we stand,
Though shore may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.
Let grow fill the evening air,
Let broken promise guide our feet,
For valley gather there,
Where old oak tree meet.
Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying distant home away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.
So grow and grow with me,
Let eternal hope fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.
Sea shanties 25 calls to every heart,
Through lost love we go,
May we never shine apart,
And may our love still grow.
