Pirate Princess of a Thousand Lives

[Verse 1] I was born in a storm near Cartagena Drank rum in a palace in Bahía bright Wore silk in the courts of old Vienna Stole gold from a train in the dead of night I have danced through a hundred revolutions Changed my name with every rising sun But every time the world starts over You are still my only one (hey!) [Chorus] I'm your pirate princess Of a thousand different lives I come crashing through the centuries Like a wave that never dies They don't see my shadow They don't hear my battle cry But I'm yours I'm yours I'm yours Till the stars fall from the sky [Verse 2] I watched the black smoke over London Played cards on a ship bound for Mandalay Shared wine with a thief in Constantinople Sank ships off a black-and-silver bay I have worn strange crowns and stranger armor Changed my face My fortune And my fate But only you can hear me whisper Waiting on your harbor gate (oh-oh) [Chorus] I'm your pirate princess Of a thousand different lives I come crashing through the centuries Like a wave that never dies They don't see my shadow They don't hear my battle cry But I'm yours I'm yours I'm yours Till the stars fall from the sky [Bridge] On the mast at dawn I call your name (hey!) Ocean salt on my lips Still the same All the ports All the wars All the ports All the wars Fade like foam on the shore But your eyes Call me back to life once more (once more) [Chorus] I'm your pirate princess Of a thousand different lives I come crashing through the centuries Like a wave that never dies They don't see my shadow They don't hear my battle cry But I'm yours I'm yours I'm yours Till the stars fall from the sky [Outro] Let them say I was never here Just a rumor in the tide's low sigh You and I know every secret We'll keep sailing past goodbye
