lyrics

Great masts that tower over harbour walls
Seagulls cry beyond the piers
Crew meet crew with darting gaze, and Hannah dreams
Of blue skies, albatrosses, driving winds

Sacks and sea-chests hauled aboard and stowed
Check sheets and agents and provision carts
Feet that pound on wooden decks, and Hannah and I dream
Of far horizons, inky seas and racing clouds
Of taut canvas, starlit nights and ocean swells
Of singing rigging, swaying trees and distant shores
