What will your ship bring back Can you tell me brave captain A treasure beyond all comprehension What will you bring back brave captain Did you tell your wife you love her And that you will return one day for her As you kissed her sweet lips She knows you're married to your ship But she loves you anyway Brave captain Where are you now brave captain
Can you see how the world truly is Shimmering and blue, lonesome like you Where are you now brave captain What will we do brave captain If you do not return brave captain We will fall down with grief And get no relief Until we send the next brave captain Until we send another brave captain
