Wheel of the Sea

Somewhere in the past
through the winds of time
where lightening blazes across the sky
a ghost ship forever sails
a voyage endlessly upon the oceans strength
with the winds uncertain draw

Wheel of the Sea

in the hull of her ship
a melody linger on 
near a flickering candle
the outline of a man
the captains restless spirit
a trumpet in his hands
his harmony echos through the night

Wheel of the Sea

a ghost ship invisible to the naked eye
forever sailing the waters of time
the many journeys
the many storms
the many storms
the many years gone
a faint melody in the air is all you'll hear

Wheel of the Sea

sailing the northern blue
round to the southern rise
in the sky the strength of every new dawn
adventures on the oceans tide
