Lyrics
We left the safe and familiar
The waters waiting quiet at the dock
Weather still, and not a thrill
'till we pushed away into the dark
Did we leave in frustration
Did we leave in spite of fear
Did we leave with the promise of a different ending
Awakened by a legend or a song
With this sail I will round Cape Horn
With these oars bend into the Ocean?s scorn
With the flight of time this storm I?ll make her mine
?make her mine
In July we set sail
In August winter brought the gale
Then September held us strong
Like we?d needed all along
Met the storm here within
Rose so high, fell so low
No we never let go
Now the rain has washed the canvass of our heart
We climb the masthead to see what's afar
What we lost we don?t need to reclaim
Once we leave we don?t come this way again
And with this sail we will round Cape Horn
