Round Harbour Round Again

Title: Round Harbour Round Again Verse 1 Round Harbour woke with the morning tide, Fishing boats all side by side. Smoke rose slowly through the dawn, Another working day was on. Every wharf and every shed, Built by hands long since they've fled. Nets were mended, lines were cast, Hoping every catch would last. Chorus Round Harbour, round again, The sea still knows where you've been. Though your windows face the breeze, Your stories drift across the seas. Round Harbour, standing true, The ocean still belongs to you. Verse 2 The years grew lean, the young moved on, The bustling days were nearly gone. Resettlement became the way, Families faced their final day. One last boat pulled from the shore, Knowing they'd return no more. Leaving empty homes behind, With memories no tide could unwind. Chorus Round Harbour, round again, The sea still knows where you've been. Though your windows face the breeze, Your stories drift across the seas. Round Harbour, standing true, The ocean still belongs to you. Bridge The gulls still gather every spring, As if they're waiting for the ring Of laughter drifting from the bay, Like it never went away. The salt still paints the weathered wood, Just as every winter should. Time may quiet every sound, But memories keep coming round. Final Chorus Round Harbour, hear the call, The sea remembers one and all. Though the people found new ground, Your spirit still comes sailing 'round. Round Harbour, proud and free, Forever part of Newfoundland's sea.
