Sailor Daddy

When he was a young boy
His life was far from good
Already got him wondering
Why he felt misunderstood

One day he left for sailing school
to escape mother's rules and ways
Made his father miss him so much
Yet they never fell from grace

Sailed around the world
Always carrying his grief
Raising his children
True to his own beliefs

Before long he met his angel
His one and only love
Letters went back and forth
Send from every port

Away from home became a burden
Weighed heavy on his heart
His voyage reached his destination
Back to shore for a brand new start

Sailed around the world
Always carrying his grief
Raising his children
True to his own beliefs

Sailed around the world
Always carrying his grief
Raising his children
True to his own beliefs

Yesterday came sailing back
For one last final time
Sailor Daddy still lives on
When we heard church bells chime
