Lyrics

Count the wandering stars
and whisper all their names
alone, adrift under the turning sky
a thousand distant eyes
under the vault of heaven's view
dim above this endless sea of blue

The Milky Way's faint trail
where tradewinds find lost shore
perhaps too far away, perhaps too sad
the pole star and orion while young sailors watch and stand
and dream of lovers left back on dry land

Above the blackened waters and the stench of salt and sea
each sailor breathes a prayer for home's fresh breeze
'cause wind and tide drive on and 'round our stormy cruel blue sphere
Lord take me far away from here...
