Текст песни
A storm in the ocean
A wall of a wave
The wind shreds the sails
Hear the hull groan and rave
Death is now close by
It knocks at my door
The ships at the brink
I expect no rapport
Time now to ponder
The life that I led
At last to remember
The path that I tread
I was a boy then
Both hungry and vile
I lived in the slums
With an empty purses smile
A cabin boy taken
On a warship to sea
I saw the vast ocean
Its breath captured me
The sea is a magnet
Its pulling me tight
A formidable power
My elements might
Dolphins are crossing
The boundless expanse
Above the waves seagulls
In summons cry dance
My life started seething
A spring from the rock
I learned of this world
In battles and shock
In one of those clashes
A choice was mine then
By fates own decree
I became a pirate of men
I plundered the vessels
Filled chests to the brim
Spent doubloons on harbor girls
Life was a hymn
Now Im past forty
A captain they know
The terror of oceans
My life is the flow
The sea is a magnet
Its pulling me tight
A formidable power
My elements might
Dolphins are crossing
The boundless expanse
Above the waves seagulls
In summons cry dance
Now what is left for me
My life has been spent
My Jolly Roger
On three ships I sent
A horror a terror
That roams on the waves
Im cursed by all men
And by God no one saves
Im a criminal pirate
No kin but Im rich
Theyve put out a warrant
On every beachs ditch
The hempen necktie
Awaits me in chains
Better the sea
Take my ashes and remains
The sea is a magnet
Its pulling me tight
A formidable power
My elements might
Dolphins are crossing
The boundless expanse
Above the waves seagulls
In summons cry dance
The mast now comes crashing
The wheel breaks apart
The ropes like a serpent
Hiss close to my heart
The waves drag the vessel
Straight onto the reefs
The ship starts to list
The waters beneath
A crack splits the air
The rigging takes flight
My Roger has vanished
A mirage in the night
I fly overboard
No heaven I crave
Oh devil of the sea
I come to you
Take me to your grave
The sea is a magnet
Its pulling me tight
A formidable power
My elements might
Dolphins are crossing
The boundless expanse
Above the waves seagulls
In summons cry dance
