lyrics

HOPE
Written by Steve Charles (Aus)

There's a ship and she sails the sea
and her name is Hope and her Captain's me
And her crew come from many lands
Istanbul and the Isle of Man
Mortals living on the wind and tide
Strong men, Free men, Full of pride
Many have tried ahh but now they sleep
Where the blue turns black
in the canyons deep

But aaahh
So Far
And here we are
For you

there's a wind that blows 'cross this sea and it
fills our sould with er mystery
Pushing our vessel as she fills the sails
Throwing spray in our faces as we
Clutch the rails
It comes a pounding like a savage beast
Quickening our hearts ah the
sensuous feast
Over the cool blue and treacherous reef
rarely sighting land
rarely seeking relief

aaahh
So Far
And here we are
For youaaahh
So Far
And here we are
For you

Instrumental

Repeat First verse and Chorus

For you x 4
