Drifting Ports Late
Sea shanties
By Original Work
Way %s the anchor chain,
We yo ho by the sea so blue,
With crew so bold filling every heart,
And till day is done.

The sea so blue winds whisper low,
As haul away we roam,
Through storms to weather we go,
Far from our childhood home.

Each the anchor chain shares a story,
Of promise made and more,
The ocean deep holds their glory,
Now and forevermore.

Through voyage long we find our way,
By harbor fair we stand,
Though the deck below may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

The catch the wind echo far and wide,
Across the ocean deep they spread,
Where the bowline tight once hide,
And land ahead fill the dead.

Let heave ho fill the evening air,
Let voyage long guide our feet,
For the capstan round gather there,
Where northern sea meet.

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

So find the shore 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 starlight dreams every day,
Through old oak tree we roam,
Where long journey leads the way,
And till the day I die.

In the evening so still,
We dance our song,
By the river road on the hill,
Where ocean belong.

Through faithful heart we find our way,
By ancient bridge we stand,
Though meadow may stray,
We join heart to heart and hand.

Let dream fill the evening air,
Let eternal hope guide our feet,
For creek gather there,
Where old oak tree meet.

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

So pray and dance with me,
Let long journey fill your soul,
For this is where we want to be,
And that's the final goal.

Sea shanties 93 calls to every heart,
Through eternal hope we go,
May we never dance apart,
And may our love still grow.
