Shiver Me Timbers

I'm leaving my family
I'm leaving all my friends
My body's at home
But my heart's in the wind
Where the clouds are like headlines
On a new front page sky
My tears are salt water
Moon's full and high

I know Martin Eden
He's gonna be proud of me
There's many before me
Who've been called by the sea
To be up in the crow's nest
Just singing my say

Shiver me timbers
I'm sailing away

And the fog's lifting
Oh the sand's shifting
I'm drifting on out
Old Captain Ahab
He's got nothing on me
So just swallow me
Don't follow me
I'm traveling alone
Blue water's my daughter
I'm gonna skip like a stone

And the fog's lifting
Oh the sand's shifting
I'm drifting on out
Old Captain Ahab
He's got nothing on me
So just swallow me
Don't follow me
I'm traveling alone
Blue water's my daughter
I'm gonna skip like a stone

Please call my family
Tell them not to cry
My goodbye's written
By the moon in the sky
And nobody knows me
I can't fathom my stay

Shiver me timbers
I'm sailing away
