The Spinning Shank

From stem to stern This ship sails across the ocean It’s helm turns it’s rudder Always in your direction Both lost in this bottle, out at sea I send this message to you Hoping it will find you Below in our cabin I lay with you Turning on your lighthouse light Spinning it around and around As the water flows above Through the cabin porthole I hear a yell from up above Land ahoy it’s loud and clear The anchor is placed deep into the sea This storm of thunder With Lighting flashing I gaze down upon you The last sound that is heard You whispering into my ear I love you
