Lyrics
Hear the tale, hear the tale of a pirate so bold
Hungry for treasure and far away from home
He dreams pirate's dreams of his lady so fair
She lights a candle in the window and waits for him there
Now the men of the sea keep their dreams locked up tight
They're scurvy and hungry and spoiling for a fight
In the morning they're brave and in the daylight they're bold
But in the night they lie weeping for their loved ones of old
By the skull and the crossbones, my heart be undone
My gold and my silver cannot buy me true love
Still I dream pirate dreams of my lady so fair
And does her candle in the window still wait for me there?
