I was Ishmael
Alone in time
I didn't know a soul
Not even mine
You all found me frozen
In the seaport wind
When you picked me up
And you took me in
I was barely hanging on
You said Kid, it ain't you
This town's gone wrong
So take what you got we're leaving here at dawn
How you gonna sail safely through the storm
Hand in hand we'll keep each other warm
How you gonna sail on seas you've never known
Hand in hand we'll always be home
Our ancient ship shook on the tide
As we boarded the boat and untangled the ties
That laughing half wit harbormaster cried
How you gonna sail safely through the storm
Hand in hand we'll keep each other warm
How you gonna sail on seas you've never known
Hand in hand we'll always be home
In a couple days the headwinds came
With its wicked waves and its violent rain
But we stared right in its eye and loudly sang
How you gonna sail safely through the storm
Hand in hand we'll keep each other warm
How you gonna sail on seas you've never known
Hand in hand we'll always be home
But it's been ages
And I'm all that's left
With my callused hands
And ears half deaf
Still I hear it beating
Like the drums of war
Every time I stand
On any shore
How you gonna sail safely through the storm
Hand in hand we'll keep each other warm
How you gonna sail on seas you've never known
Hand in hand we'll always be home
Wherever we go
