Lyrics:

He turns his back into the wind
A deeper blue is beckoning
And all the girls go crazy for him
A seafaring man
And how I yearn to follow him
And silver fishes offering
He says I must be crazy to love him
A seafaring man

Chorus:
May the ocean fall before him
And the wind blow warmer for him
And a thousand stars to guide him back home
A seafaring man

And is it any wonder then
I lie awake and think of him?
Forty fathoms down he may lie now
A seafaring man
What hope is in a hurricane?
What albatross will share his pain?
I think I must go crazy from loving
A seafaring man

(Chorus 2x)
