Ghosts On the Water

ghosts on the water Captains courageous Out hunting for whale Ghosts on the water Still under sail Whales are all gone now Time goes so fast Ghosts on the water Still a'fore the mast Yesterday beckons But no one can see The ghosts on the water Still sailing the sea Hunting for schools That no longer exist Ghosts on the water Sail on in the mist Captains courageous Out hunting for blue Souls lost in stasis A captain and crew Looking for something Fighting waves and the gales Ghosts on the water Still under sail A sailor's adventure Going where the wind blows When will the sea bite? Nobody knows Ships nonexistent Hunting whales also lost Ghosts on the water Whatever the cost
