He Was Her Captain She Was His Dame
He Stole Her Heart While She Took His Name
He Shipped Out To Sea With The Crack of A Whip
He Never Came Back From That Sailing Ship
Why Why Why Does She Not Cry
Something Inside Keeps Her Eyes Dry
My My My Much Stronger Than Love
The Heavenly Silence From Up Above
Night After Night The Good Book On Her Knee
She Stares At The Darkness Out To The Sea
The Spirits With Wings Calming Her Fear
She Silently Prays But Never A Tear
Why Why Why Does She Not Cry
With Peace In Her Heart And Hope In Her Eye
My My My The Silence Within
Where No Idle Words Have Ever Been
The Natives Were Restless Drinking Their Rum
Dancing Around To The Beat Of A Drum
His Thoughts Turned To Her As They Lit The Fire
He Smiled To Himself At His Funeral Pyre
Why Why Why Does He Not Cry
Never Afraid To Live Or Die
My My My A Holy Power
The Silence Inside At The Sacred Hour
They Found Her That Morning The End Of The Race
Holding His Picture A Smile On Her Face
I Still Hear Them Laughing Down From A Cloud
Laughing And Singing The Silence So Loud
Why Why Why Do They Not Cry
Their Life Was A Voyage And Never A Lie
My My My A Powerful Trust
Their Voyage Was Done Dust To Dust
