Depths Of The Sea
As i travel upon the sea,
The North wind she guideth me,
I dream of treasures filled with gold,
And of ancient stories that were never told,
I gaze upon the setting sun,
As me and the sea become as one,
My is my companion and friend,
She'll be with me til my journey's end,
Her mast is sturdy her hull is strong,
She works from sunset until the dawn,
We've been to many lands, docked at many shores,
And with her I feel safe and I feel secure,
The smell of the ocean is everywhere,
As I watch the segulls ride the air,
Here is where the my heart and spirit are free;
Here is where my soul and I are in harmony;
And so it is and so it shall ever be;
Bury my body in the great depths of the sea.
