专辑:《Song of the Sea》

When I was a boy of 17
I paid allegiance to a dream
And stole on board the Queen of Mandalay
I knew that she was Asia bound
And there were treasures to be found
With many ports of call along the way

When we were safely out at sea
I went to join the company
The men on board soon taught me how to sail
I was young and I learned fast
To tie a knot and climb a mast
The captain told me “Son, you’re doing well”

There was a song that we all sang along
“Oh, spare us from the rage of the sea…”

Went down the coast of Africa
And set a course for India
When suddenly a storm began to blow
The waves came up and the ship went down
And men were drowning all around
I washed up on an island all alone

I heard the song that we all sang along
It echoed in the wind and through the trees

Many moons went slowly by
Thought I’d be there til I died
And I would never see my home again
But then one day out of the blue
A friendly ship came into view
That’s when I knew my solitude would end

I taught them the song and we all sang along
“Oh, spare us from the rage of the sea…”
