Lyrics:

He'll sail on in with the summer wind That blows on this came day Everybody called him 'Pirate' Dark and handsome in his own way And the fire in eyes Lit all the fire inside of me And soon you were feeling So much more than the wind and waves and sea [Chorus:] Pirate, I'm not gonna take your soul I only want the right to love you I know the sea won't let you go Pirate, my love will only chain ya down So just know how much I love you And then turn that ship around Every time that he'd sail back to me We'd fall in love again And my face would fill with wonder At all the places that he'd been But I knew his sweetest love song Was when he heard the tradewinds blow And I loved him way too much To tell the secret he should know I told him [Chorus] Now as I watch in silence Another young man goes to sea And his silhouette is stirrin' up A painful memory And I know his heart is set to sail But mine is set to cry 'Cause I feel as the way I did The day his daddy said goodbye I told him [Chorus x2]
