We'll, I'm leaving my family

I'm leaving all my freinds

My body's at home, but my heart's in the wind

And the clouds are like headlines

Upon a new frontpage sky

My tears are saltwater, the moon's full and high



And I know Joe Comrad

Would be proud of me

Many before me 'been called by the say:

'To be up in the crow's nest,

Singing my sayin':

Shiver me timbers, let's all sail away'



And the fog's lifting, the sand's shifting

I'm drifting on out

Old captain Ahab's got nothing on me

Swallow me, don't follow me

I'm travelling alone

The water's my daughter

I'll skip like a stone



And the fog's lifting, the sand's shifting

I'm drifting on out

Old captain Ahab's got nothing on me

Swallow me, don't follow me

I'm travelling alone

The water, she is my daughter

I'll skip like a stone



Won't you please call my family?

Tell 'em not to cry

My goodbyes are written by the moon in the sky

Say, nobody knows me

I got no reason to stay..

Shiver me timbers..

I'm sailing.. Away..
