Trips Across The Ocean

[Verse 1] Never sleeping never tired Still so young and so inspired Swinging swords at empty air Black land pirates without cares We thought the sea touched the horizon One day's march and we'd arrive We thought that sailing would be easy We thought that God was on our side [Chorus] We dreamt of trips across the ocean That fresh turned soil was windy seas Never cared to check our headings Our sails wide open to the breeze Trying hard to be reborn Didn't see on coming storms 'til our trips across the ocean Faded softly like winds against the corn [Verse 2] Didn't know the stern from bow Didn't matter anyhow Even if we ran aground Still be far from our hometown So we pushed off to depart Ship was tossed and ripped apart The captain called to load the boats And not a single dream was left afloat [Chorus] We dreamt of trips across the ocean That fresh turned soil was windy seas Never cared to check our headings Our sails wide open to the breeze Trying hard to be reborn Didn't see on coming storms 'til our trips across the ocean Faded softly like winds against the corn [Bridge] Red skies at night Brought us sailor's delight Red skies of morn And sailors all came home [Chorus] We dreamt of trips across the ocean That fresh turned soil was windy seas Never cared to check our headings Our sails wide open to the breeze Trying hard to be reborn Didn't see on coming storms 'til our trips across the ocean Faded softly like winds against the corn 'til our trips across the ocean Faded softly like winds against the corn 'til our trips across the ocean Faded softly like winds against the corn
