My cargo was gold and myrrh
When it all took a turn for the worse
From then on, diminishing returns
The sea had brought me some fortune and fame
I was still hoping for more of the same
Thought I had to readjust my aim
And then, long and boring
A period of calm
Id do anything
Me and my companion
A portuguese water dog
In his finest years
Id do anything
Faithful and hard working
In someone elses service
Were bound to spend our days
For the young and the restless
We leave a few empty waves
The 5th of August, I sighted land
Now I ask you if I can
Tie my boat, even leave it in the sand
The sea had brought me some fame
I had been hoping for more of the same
But now I had to reconsider my game
Gather your council
Signal me with flags
Id do anything
Me and my companion
A portuguese water dog
In his finest years
Id do anything
Faithful and hard working
In someone elses service
Were bound to spend our days
For the young and the restless
We leave a few empty waves
Gather your council
I wait for the flags
Id do anything
Me and my companion
A portuguese water dog
In his finest years
Id do anything
Faithful and hard working
In someone elses service
Were bound to spend our days
For the young and the restless
We leave a few empty waves
