Whenever you board a ship |
|
You put your life in the captain's hands |
|
And sometimes this could be a man |
|
With a complicated inner life |
|
Your own life depends on him |
|
Gambling on his decisions |
|
Hoping for some better days |
|
On the way to a new shore |
|
She's the pride of our seas |
|
She is what we all admire |
|
She's a baby in a basket |
|
A book in a bonfire |
|
We are leaving hostile waters |
|
At full force straight ahead |
|
Watching out for good conditions |
|
Leaving behind what we dread |
|
Here we are now in open waters |
|
Pirate ships follow in our wake |
|
The navigator has a scheme |
|
To outrun all our enemies |
|
Finally we've reached clear waters |
|
The new shore not far from here |
|
A dangerous passage left behind |
|
With obstacles and enemies |
|
She's the pride of our seas |
|
She is what we all admire |
|
She's a baby in a basket |
|
A book in a bonfire |
|
We are leaving hostile waters |
|
At full force straight ahead |
|
Watching out for good conditions |
|
Leaving behind what we dread |
