Текст песни
The harbor lights were shining, the moon was at its high
The captain said, "Thank God we're home, we've drunk the barrels dry"
The mizzen mast was shaken and the lanterns all burned low
I'd never thought we'd make it, but we've 20 leagues to go
So blow you southern trades and guide me safely to the shore
I'll never ever gonna sail the seven seas no more
I don't wanna miss the sand in my hair
The roll of the tide and the salt in the air
Deep inside, it's true
I'm a home lovin' man comin' on home to you
I don't wanna miss the wind in my eyes
The shimmerin' light when the seagull flies
Although I've traveled far
I'm a home loving man and home is where you are
The crowd upon the quayside, their faces long and drawn
Are suddenly awakened as we sail in on the dawn
The wives, the sons, the lovers, who never gave up hope
All breathe a sigh together as they reach to catch the rope
God bless you, southern trades, you got me safely back this time
Oh, you'll never have the need again to save this soul of mine
I don't wanna miss the sand in my hair
The roll of the tide and the salt in the air
Deep inside, it's true
I'm a home-lovin' man comin' on home to you
I don't wanna miss the wind in my eyes
The shimmerin' light when the seagull flies
Although I've traveled far
I'm a home loving man home is where you are
Yes, I don't wanna miss the sand in my hair
The roll of the tides and the salt in the air
Deep inside it's true
I'm a home lovin' man comin' on home to you
I don't wanna miss the wind in my eyes
The shimmerin' light when the seagull flies
