I have dreamed of the rolling sea
as long as I remember me
rocky shores and white sand beaches
turquoise seas and distant marinas
albatross and pelicans
gulls and terns and keel-billed toucans
whales of every variety
dolphins play with gaiety
grab your kit and grab your cap
long our journey short this nap
Hey ho we sail at break of day
raise the jib and steer the way
hey ho we sail at break of day
to far off lands and starlit bays
I have dreamed of the rolling sea
as long as I have remembered me
a joy to scrabble every day
to clean the deck and find our way
stars and sun do guide our course
sextant, compass and telescope
Zanzibar, Galapogas
Bora Bora and Mykonos
Lycian Coast, Bay of Islands
Tahiti, Tortola and Ireland
Hey ho we sail at break of day
raise the jib and steer the way
Hey ho we sail break of day
to far off lands and starlit bays
