|
Take you away for my magic ship. |
|
I have two hundred deisel horses thundering loud. |
|
Sea birds call your name and the mountain's on fire |
|
As the summer lightening cuts the sky like a hot wire. |
|
And you ride on the swell and your heart is alive, |
|
Think i'll make you my seal driver. |
|
I'm no great looker, i'm no fast shakes. |
|
I'll give you a steady push on a six knot simmering |
|
High tide. |
|
I can hold us down --- keep our head to the wind, |
|
Or let us roll on the broadside, cold spray flying in, |
|
And we'll ride on the swell and our hearts are alive. |
|
Let me make you my seal driver. |
|
I could captain you if you'd crew for me |
|
Follow white flecked spindrift --- float on a moonkissed sea. |
|
Could you fancy me as a pirate bold, |
|
Or a longship viking warrior with the old gods on |
|
His side? |
|
Well i'm an inshore man and i'm nobody's hero, |
|
But i'll make you tight for a windy night and a dark |
|
Ride. |
|
Let me take you in hand and bring you alive. |
|
Going to make you my seal driver. |
