A Epic Voyage
On lofty seas
she's carried me
Across many an ocean wide
Through winds and waves
O'er watery graves
And many an angry tide
I be seen all sorts
In many a port
Me lads an me hoist a few
Then back to the sail
Midst raging gale
Into waters crystal blue
Thars a lass who waits
Near Harbors gates
With brown skin oh so fine
She takes me in
Tho im wearing thin
She doesnt pay no mind
A night o lust
Shakes of the rust
In her bosom I shut me eyes
And rise in Morn
Used and forlorn
An greet the azure skies
A wink of eye
A kiss good bye
For salt air beckons me
Loves found and lost
I counts the cost
For me first love is the sea.
