A Night At Sea

On the horizon the sun is setting Blue water, white clouds, red sky The peace and tranquility of a calm sea The sound of a cutter passing by Standing on the fantail at night Staring at the heavens above Warm Caribbean all around Dreaming of a long lost love Southern Cross hanging high in the sky Wondering when I'll be home again Close my eyes and dream awhile I hear your voice in the wind You know that I love you and always will And I don't enjoy being alone But my other love is the waters I sail The oceans have a lure of their own Come sail with me to those far away places Come travel across the sea We can find our own island under the sun and know the joys of being free.
