Lyrics
i keep an weather eye
a sudden squall
rose up from the south east
on the leeward side
waves started crashing high 20 feet!
winds whipped up wailing
on the rigging and the sheets
cut the anchor
jetison cargo
the half-mast has cracked
the mainsail remains
stunned static lightning
jetison cargo
i don't care for the gold
i care for your lives
=============================================
i am the song of the sea
i'm the heart of the wind and the waves
shipwrecked on pelican bay
i'm the song of the sea
i'm the heart of the wind and the waves
shipwrecked on pelican bay
if you're looking for me
you can find me beginning again
shipwrecked on pelican bay
come on roll up your sleeves
you can find us beginning again
shipwrecked on pelican bay
===========================================
they turned tradeships into slave ships
and cheated the sailors
until there was mutiny far out at sea
they stole from their purses
their farmlands and homes
while they forged their colonial economies
tell that me injustice
is not like a cancer
when it drives the whole world insane
everyone hates it
but no one will change it
they believe it's all part of the game
the whole vital sea
is much wider and deep
than the islands
of greed where they stand
the heartbeat that beats
is the time of our deeds
calling tradewinds
from far different lands
every one's waiting
for someone to come up with a plan
come up with a plan
here i am rebuilding
your ship full of dreams
in an impossible world
where kings and queens
and the powers that be
only pay a simple price for commodities
but if not for the hard work of all these good people
your precious gold would still be stuck in the ground
give them their value
let them be who they are
and set sail upon the sea
sail free upon the sea
row, row, row
row with your heart and your soul
row, row, row
set your sights on the horizon of hope
row, row, row
until all the children are fed
row, row, row
find our destiny straight up ahead
