Walking down to the dock of the bay

Just take care in selecting your ship, moored at the quay

A sturdy ship from those at hand will help your passage

Deliver you to a new land

Before you set sail, remember why you chose to leave this place

Changing your mind in a storm tossed sea

Keeps you floundering upon that misery sea

- Chorus -

Taking shots from a cannonade

High seas pirates chasing your sails

Throw your caution to the wind

Position your ship so the sun shines in their face

And though your crew has abandoned the sails

I can still feel the wind and the waves at your hand

And though your crew has abandoned the sails

I can still feel the wind and the waves at your hand at your hand

- Middle break –

- Chorus -

Taking shots from a cannonade

High seas pirates chasing your sails

Throw your caution to the wind

Position your ship so the sun shines in their face

And though your crew has abandoned the sails

I can still feel the wind and the waves at your hand

And though your crew has abandoned the sails

I can still feel the wind and the waves at your hand, at your hand

Before you set sail remember why you chose to leave this place
