Verse 1 I’ve seen the bars in Rio, and the fog of Amsterdam, Whiskey burned my tongue in Harlem, and I kissed the devil’s hand. Pre-Chorus But every wave reminds me, where my story truly lies… Chorus Uullaa laa laa, the ocean rocks my bones, The gulls above keep screaming, I was never meant for homes. From Antwerp docks to the edge of the world, Only the sea can carry a sailor’s prayer unheard. Verse 2 I’ve gambled gold in Hamburg, lost my boots in Mandalay, Smoked the nights in Lisbon, ’til the morning stole my pay. Pre-Chorus And every port’s a mirror, but the ocean never lies… Chorus Uullaa laa laa, the ocean rocks my bones, The rum keeps flowing faster, and the stars will guide me home. From Antwerp docks to the edge of the world, Only the sea can carry a sailor’s prayer unheard. Bridge (storm section) Thunder cracks like drunken gods, and the albatross flies free, Salted wounds and broken laws, are the price of the deep blue sea! Breakdown (calmer) The bottle’s always lighter, when the dawn begins to rise… But only sailors know, how the beer betrays their eyes. Final Chorus Uullaa laa laa, the ocean rocks my bones, No chapel bells can chain me, no woman’s bed’s my home. From Antwerp docks to the edge of the world, Only the sea can carry a sailor’s prayer unheard. Outro “Uullaa laa laa… sail on… sail on…”
