Left homeport to find a new life Adrift, a stranded sailor without a sail, What water is this, I travel alone? I search the horizon, to no avail. Searching the seas for a new port to call mine A storm came up, tore my ship ragged Left with low provisions, and a mighty thirst My mind is frayed, all jumbled and jagged. Davy Jones is barking my name, from his list Breeze comes up, makeshift I use my shirt Feeble attempt to make my way to safe harbor Please Poseidon send my journey to solid dirt. A promising future is my one request A life with honor, a partner, a friend A new day dawns with red in the morning The warning is ominous, I refuse to bend. I defy the fates and make it through Red sunset tonight bodes a better day tomorrow Persevere and push on, change on the horizon The gull is welcome, I reach a calm bay, end of sorrow.

The Journey
Left homeport to find a new life Adrift, a stranded sailor without a sail, What water is this, I travel alone? I search the horizon, to no avail. Searching the seas for a new port to call mine A storm came up, tore my ship ragged Left with low provisions, and a mighty thirst My mind is frayed, all jumbled and jagged. Davy Jones is barking my name, from his list Breeze comes up, makeshift I use my shirt Feeble attempt to make my way to safe harbor Please Poseidon send my journey to solid dirt. A promising future is my one request A life with honor, a partner, a friend A new day dawns with red in the morning The warning is ominous, I refuse to bend. I defy the fates and make it through Red sunset tonight bodes a better day tomorrow Persevere and push on, change on the horizon The gull is welcome, I reach a calm bay, end of sorrow.
