Lyrics

As I set out across the sea my fortune for to find
Thoughts upon the vanity of all I'd left behind
One who said she'd wait for me if ever I came home
One who said she'd follow me wherever I did roam
Oh, and letters are the currency of hearts who are far away
I waited for the longest time for what this heart would say
Oh, and I would ne'er repeat the words that in these letters came
That dashed my hopes and tore my heart each time I read again
Oh, and foreign tongues are cursed tongues when one is so unsure
But distance is a greater cure if one can just endure
For the ocean is the enemy of fire and of ice
And a secret is a story that never is told twice
And oh, the wind, the changing wind that waits to bring me home
Upon the eve of my return I sit and drink alone
And I curse the day that e'er I strayed, that turned this heart to stone
And I drink a toast to all who boast of living on their own
