Okay. I have everything but the last 3rd from last line of the last verse for sure. He's at the bottom of his register there and the first two words and the last word aren't clear, but the logic of what I hear works. Bert Jansch/Pentangle: THE OPEN SEA (from In The Round, 1986) Just like a toy boat, that's floating down the river Gently bobbing up and down The autumn leaves brightly settled on the water In rainbow eddies spinning 'round A wild and lonely seed that's borne upon the wind You never worry where you're bound You ride the rapids like a feather on the air With no complaints and not a sound. Chorus: But take care; please take care! As you travel on your journey. Take care, but beware Of the open sea. In perfect innocence your world seems like a flower Never fading; always bright You never look ahead, don't see the waterfall You never see the warning light. Chorus/Break Like Peter Pan you never think about tomorrow. Tomorrow is another day No time to stop and think, no time to think of sorrow You turn your back and fly away Chorus: But take care; please take care! As you travel on your journey. Take care, but beware Of the open sea. Take care; please take care! As you travel on your way. Take care, but beware Of the open sea.
