Lyrics
Verse 1
Midnight rolls around the pier
The clock strikes twelve for every soul to hear
The widow waits with salt upon her eyes
She counts the stars before the moon can rise
Pre-Chorus
Now the bells begin their heavy tolling
Over waves where white caps keep on rolling
Take my hand
Across the sand
Chorus
Oh tell the captain I have gone away
Beyond the harbor and the golden bay
Ride the wind
Through the night
Far beyond the reaches of the morning light
High and low
Watch the kingdom grow
Verse 2
Dusty trunks of tattered silk and lace
Hidden in a cold and empty place
He signed the paper with a silver pen
Then disappeared and wasn't seen again
Pre-Chorus
Now the bells begin their heavy tolling
Over waves where white caps keep on rolling
Take my hand
Across the sand
Chorus
Oh tell the captain I have gone away
Beyond the harbor and the golden bay
Ride the wind
Through the night
Far beyond the reaches of the morning light
High and low
Watch the kingdom grow
Bridge
Fire in the galley
Ice upon the mast
Burn the heavy cargo
Forget about the past
Set the spirit free
In a symphony
Chorus
Oh tell the captain I have gone away
Beyond the harbor and the golden bay
Ride the wind
Through the night
Far beyond the reaches of the morning light
High and low
Watch the kingdom grow
Post-Chorus
Sail away
Sail away
Carry the king across the sea today
Ooh-ooh-ooh
La la la la
