𝗖𝗼𝗽𝘆𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 © 2026 Midnight Splash | 𝗔𝗹𝗹 𝗥𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁𝘀 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗲𝗿𝘃𝗲𝗱 [Instrumental Intro] [Verse 1] We cast off lines at the break of day, With a biting wind in the rigging’s sway, The gulls cried out as we left the shore, For the lives we knew would be ours no more. The captain roared, “Now earn your keep!” As the waves awoke from their restless sleep, With a heave and a shout and a heavy throw, We bent to the work — all hands below! [Chorus] Blow, my brothers, blow! Let the wild wind fill and the cold tides roll, Stamp your boots and sing it strong, We’ve been at sea far too long! Blow, my brothers, blow! [Verse 2] Oh the nights ran long and the days ran hard, With frozen ropes and a splintered yard, But a song and a laugh kept the dark at bay, And carried our weary souls each day. Old Jack swore he’d had his fill, Said one more storm and he surely would spill, But come first light with the gulls in tow, He was first to shout, “Now lads, let’s go!” [Chorus] Blow, my brothers, blow! Let the wild wind fill and the cold tides roll, Stamp your boots and sing it strong, We’ve been at sea far too long! Blow, my brothers, blow! [Verse 3] Then land broke through on the morning haze, Like a dream we’d chased for a hundred days, With hearts held high and our voices rough, We laughed like fools — we’d had enough! But every man as he touched that ground, Felt the silence feel a little too loud, For the sea still called in a steady flow… And we all knew back we’d go. [Bridge] Oh the sea don’t rest and it won’t let go, It lives in the hearts of the lads below, From the crash of waves to the salt and spray, It calls us back — come what may! [Long Instrumental Break] [Final Chorus] Blow, my brothers, blow! Let the wild wind fill and the cold tides roll, Stamp your boots and sing it strong, We’ve been at sea far too long! Blow, my brothers, blow! Through the storm and fire and ice and snow, Raise your voice and let it show — We were born for the sea’s wild flow! Blow, my brothers, blow! [Outro] So raise one last and down it slow, For the winds that come and the tides that go… Blow, my brothers… blow. [Instrumental plays at the song ends]
