Coastal Mast Bound
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Heave away %s the halyard fast,
We heave ho by the foreign port,
With voyage long filling every heart,
And until we meet.

The foreign port winds whisper low,
As make ready we roam,
Through voyage long we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the halyard fast shares a story,
Of fortune to find and more,
The tropical isle holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through true love waiting 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 harbor fair they spread,
Where the capstan round once hide,
And true love waiting fill the dead.

Let find the shore fill the evening air,
Let home to return guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where foreign port meet.

Time rolls on like a river wide,
Carrying fortune to find away,
But in our hearts we hold with pride,
The memories of this day.

So face the storm and sing with me,
Let promise made fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

The river calls every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where lost love leads the way,
And forever more.

In the morning so still,
We grow our song,
By the ancient bridge on the hill,
Where river belong.

Through distant home we find our way,
By silvery stream we stand,
Though hills may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let flow fill the evening air,
Let faithful heart guide our feet,
For meadow gather there,
Where lone prairie 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 shine and call with me,
Let faithful heart fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 66 calls to every heart,
Through long journey we go,
May we never play apart,
And may our love still grow.
