When I was a young girl |
|
I wanted to sail around the world |
|
That's the life for me, living on the sea |
|
Spirit of a sailor, circumnavigates the globe |
|
The lust of a pioneer, will acknowledge no frontier |
|
I remember you by, thunderclap in the sky |
|
Lightning flash, tempers flare, |
|
'round the horn if you dare |
|
I just spent six months in a leaky boat |
|
Six months in a leaky boat |
|
Aotearoa, rugged individual |
|
Glisten like a pearl |
|
At the bottom of the world |
|
The tyranny of distance |
|
Didn't stop the cavalier |
|
So why should it stop me |
|
I'll conquer and stay free |
|
Ah c'mon all you boys |
|
Let's forget and forgive |
|
There's a world to explore |
|
Tales to tell back on shore |
|
I just spent six months in a leaky boat |
|
Six months in a leaky boat |
|
Ship-wrecked love can be cruel |
|
Don't be fooled by her kind |
|
There's a wind in my sails |
|
To protect and prevail |
|
I just spent six months in a leaky boat |
|
Six months in a leaky boat |
