Song of the Sea歌詞

[00:27.392] When I was a boy of 17
[00:29.605] I paid allegiance to a dream
[00:32.114] And stole on board the Queen of Mandalay
[00:37.333] I knew that she was Asia bound
[00:39.759] And there were treasures to be found
[00:42.205] With many ports of call along the way
[00:47.145]
[00:47.155] When we were safely out at sea
[00:49.821] I went to join the company
[00:52.395] The men on board soon taught me how to sail
[00:57.525] I was young and I learned fast
[01:00.122] To tie a knot and climb a mast
[01:02.562] The captain told me “Son, you’re doing well”
[01:07.000]
[01:07.001] There was a song that we all sang along
[01:12.356] “Oh, spare us from the rage of the sea…”
[01:17.751]
[01:30.330] Went down the coast of Africa
[01:32.453] And set a course for India
[01:35.016] When suddenly a storm began to blow
[01:40.498] The waves came up and the ship went down
[01:42.540] And men were drowning all around
[01:45.197] I washed up on an island all alone
[01:50.000]
[01:50.001] I heard the song that we all sang along
[01:55.149] It echoed in the wind and through the trees
[02:00.996]
[02:23.672] Many moons went slowly by
[02:25.818] Thought I’d be there til I died
[02:28.298] And I would never see my home again
[02:33.389] But then one day out of the blue
[02:35.855] A friendly ship came into view
[02:38.474] That’s when I knew my solitude would end
[02:43.000]
[02:43.001] I taught them the song and we all sang along
[02:48.488] “Oh, spare us from the rage of the sea…”
