Sea Song

Hey! Hey! Owayho (owayho) A long time ago Owayho (owayho) The tide is calm and low Owayhey (owayhey) They row all night and day Owayhey (owayhey) But none shall see this bay ever again Owayho (owayho) Westward we go Owayho (owayho) Rough winds begin to blow Owayhey (owayhey) One more pull and then belay Owayhey (owayhey) A storm to get underway Defying danger (hey!) Defying death (ho!) The highest waves Will never impale our spirit Winds toss (hey!) To and fro (ho!) The callous waves But we will never change our course By the rocks, trees, and water What if I never die? The world would be mine By the wind, rain, and fire What if we are meant to see The dawn of a new day? Owayho (owayho) Our hearts begin to glow Owayho (owayho) It's time for us to go Owayhey (owayhey) The cost is high, we can't delay Owayhey (owayhey) Call the storm to get underway Defying danger (hey!) Defying death (ho!) The highest waves Will never impale our spirit Winds toss (hey!) To and fro (ho!) The callous waves But we will never change our course By the rocks, trees, and water What if I never die? The world would be mine By the wind, rain, and fire What if we are meant to see The dawn of a new day? On the sea with no shore I will hail you once more On the day that we part You'll grow in my heart Farewell, my good friend We'll meet again Brothers, I'll hear from you When I'm on the other side Brothers, I'll hear from you Calling from the depth of the ocean Brothers, I'll hear from you When I'm on the other side Brothers, I'll hear from you Calling from the depth of the ocean Oooh oooh oooh oooh When my heart beats for the very last time I won't regret what grew on my mind Though fortune's denied I will stand by your side I will rise with the tide Till the end of all time Father, can you hear me Deep down in my ocean grave? Father, can you see me Below the spray of a greedy wave? Arrgh! Defying danger (hey!) Defying death (ho!) The highest waves Will never impale our spirit Winds toss (hey!) To and fro (ho!) The callous waves But we will never change our course By the rocks, trees, and water What if I never die? The world would be mine By the wind, rain, and fire What if we are meant to see The dawn of a new day? On the sea with no shore I will hail you once more On the day that we part You'll grow in my heart Farewell, my good friend We'll meet again Owayho
