The Last Ocean Rider

Ocean rider take your stand upon the deck

Man the helm and overwhelm the lazy waves

Break the tide and lie besides the rising wind

Point your compass toward the sun and drift away

Steady as you turn the wheel

Tell me how a mariner feels

To be heading for home after being alone

For all these lonely years

Long lost crew have paid their due at last

You have a thought and the fish you caught

Were just enough

To ease the hunger and ease the pain

You drink the rain

Just before the battle was fought

You were hiding in the starboard port

The captain was rehearsing his speech

The memory is just out of reach

Rest the anchor you slipped along

Upon your watery bed

Now's the time to paint the ocean red

And it looks like we can roam

Upon your golden foam

Because the last ocean rider is moving on

Silver water, feel the weight upon your back

As this old ship begins to rip your waves

Devil's daughter sealed your fate

She can't have it back

And now your shipwreck fears have disappeared

It's over now
