lyrics

Hoist the anchor
Set sail from shore
There's nothing left here
For me anymore

When I rest, where will I be?
Two hundred miles beneath the sea

The day we left port your eyes were green
The sky was black and the sea in between
Whitecaps and rain flew over the sides
The sun did set and the waves did rise

And the only taste on my tongue

Was the salt of the sea and me
Come what may be
Water and sky eternally
Fierce, free life on the sea
On and on, come what may be

On Calypso's island I didn't stay long
My heart was left on the banks of the lee
I never heard the siren's song
Cause the only woman for me

Was the salt of the sea and me
Come what may be
Water and sky eternally
Fierce, free life on the sea
On and on, come what may be

I'd walk a thousand leagues for you
With an oar on my back and no shoes on my feet
You can't imagine what I would do
For another taste

Of the salt of the sea and me
Come what may be
Water and sky eternally
Fierce, free life on the sea
On and on, come what may be
