Pirates and Poets

I was born beside a big blue bay Grew up on the Gulf of Mexico Dreamed of the islands with Papa Hemingway And ol' Errol Flynn was my hero All I ever wanted was to find you, girl Make love upon the seven seas But if we never made it around the world Key West would be all right with me Pirates and Poets and me you see Are one of a kind Searching for a treasure like you And finding the perfect rhyme Pirates and Poets and me believe In love only when it's true And the buccaneer and Shakespeare inside of me Believe that we're in love with you Pirates have their silver swords They can steal your heart away Poets have their golden words They can win you with what they say Never knew I had any hero in me Never found much worth fighting for Never knew the beauty of poetry But I'd never loved you before Pirates and Poets and me you see Are one of a kind Searching for a treasure like you And finding the perfect rhyme Pirates and Poets and me believe In love only when it's true And the buccaneer and Shakespeare inside of me Believe that we're in love with you Pirates and Poets and me you see Are one of a kind Searching for a treasure like you And finding the perfect rhyme Pirates and Poets and me believe In love only when it's true And the buccaneer and Shakespeare inside of me Believe that we're in love with you
