Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Spirit of the Sea From: GUEST,Ian Hendrie Date: 30 Dec 17 - 12:27 PM Chorus : Tinker, tailor, soldier, sailor Rich man, poor man, bound or free They all may ride upon my shoulders I am the spirit of the sea Since the dawn of time and travelling Trading silks and spices fine Precious stones and human cargoes Gold and silver sweet, red wine I have heard the songs of merchants Heard their greedy plans and schemes Kept them safe on my sparkling waters Held them close and fired their dreams Chorus Men have used me through the ages Wrecks of ships and lost dead souls Rest upon my chill grey forest And Neptune's bell forever tolls They have tried to steal my treasures Pirates now for modern times Always taking, never giving Sorrows left by mindless crimes Brave men risk their lives for others Tiny boats on mighty waves Villages of sons and brothers Put to sea, men's lives to save But I ask a dreadful price Veiled, sad faces on the quay Search for signs on dark horizons Look for lights across the sea |
