What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
The captain and his son sailed away
2
They pushed off the docks
3
On the fifth day of may
4
Determined to set a new course
5
Led by the stars and a compass under moonlight
6
Then they sang out
7
"this is the way we were raised
8
Tug on the cables to straighten the sails
9
We're determined to find our own way
10
Even if it takes us to the last day of may"
11
Then the captain spoke
12
"have you ever wanted to die?
13
These things i've known my son
14
Once or twice
15
There are maps of navigation through life
16
Please let me give you the best of advice"
17
"it takes steadfast endurance through the storm
18
Keep a candle and a compass always on board
19
Look up to the stars every night
20
Always remember you're somebody's child
21
Yes, you're mine"
22
The captain then lit up his pipe
23
Put a hand over brow
24
And gazed towards the star-line
25
The pilot struggled in flight
26
Too close to a mountain
27
Directly in sight
28
Then the captain spoke
29
"see that plane starboard
30
30 degrees
31
That's a man lost as you'll ever see
32
That's a man lost as I think i've ever seen
33
Promise my son you will stay on the sea"
34
"it takes steadfast endurance through the storm
35
Keep a candle and a compass always on board
36
And look up to the stars every night
37
Always remember you're somebody's child
38
Yes, you're mine"
