The Ghost Ship in the Harbor
[Verse] Oh, the wind blows restless through the harbor tonight The ship, she's anchored, waiting for the morning light But the waves, they call her name, urging her to sail away She's a ghost ship in the harbor, never again to see the day [Chorus] Sail, sail, oh, ship of the sea (ship of the sea) Through the stormy waters, where you long to be (long to be) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway (sway) [Verse 2] She was once a mighty vessel, her sail catching the wind With a crew of brave sailors, her journey to begin But one fateful night, a storm of wrath and might Tossed her in the tempest, and brought her to her plight [Verse 3] Now she rests in silence, haunted by the past The memories of voyages, too fleeting, couldn't last Her timbers creak and groan, like a weary old soul Bound to the ocean's embrace, where the wild waters roll [Chorus] Sail, sail, oh, ship of the sea (ship of the sea) Through the stormy waters, where you long to be (long to be) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway (sway) [Verse 4] Yet still, her spirit lingers, in the misty maritime air Whispering tales of adventure, of peril and despair Though trapped in the harbor's grasp, her longing never fades For the open sea's embrace, where her legacy pervades [Chorus] Sail, sail, oh, ship of the sea (ship of the sea) Through the stormy waters, where you long to be (long to be) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway (sway) [Verse 3] Now she rests in silence, haunted by the past The memories of voyages, too fleeting, couldn't last Her timbers creak and groan, like a weary old soul Bound to the ocean's embrace, where the wild waters roll [Chorus] Sail, sail, oh, ship of the sea (ship of the sea) Through the stormy waters, where you long to be (long to be) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway (sway) [Outro] So sing, sing, ye sailors, to the ship that couldn't roam In the echoes of the harbor, she'll forever find a home Though her sails may never billow, and her prow may never cleave Her story sails on with us, through the waves of memory's weave [Chorus] Sail, sail, oh, ship of the sea (ship of the sea) Through the stormy waters, where you long to be (long to be) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway (sway) [Chorus 2] Sail, sail, oh, ship of the sea (ship of the sea) Through the stormy waters, where you long to be (long to be) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway (sway) But the anchor holds you, in the harbor you stay, A ghost ship cursed by the waves, forever to sway... (sway) (sway) (sway)
