Wide in the Open - The Privateer

It is said that wide in the open

When you’re roaming much longer

Than you could foresee

From the void your senses

Are stolen and visions will start

To boil up from the sea

The last few days

Our water was fading

Most of our work

Will be put to the rest

Some of us

Are just contemplating

Some crewmen’s mind

Is put to the test

Far away

I’ll guide you far away

To a place mysterious and old

I will guide us far away

To a place where all

The riddles unfold

Claire was sure

According to her maps

A mere makshift

She drew from the logs

That w’ll soon

Find a formation of rocks

Forming a trellis

We’ve been eager

To receive word

That she would soon accept

To get rid of her watch

But she stayed

To scout the horizon

Full of yearning

For an image

That her heart relies on

Far away

I’ll guide you far away

To a place mysterious and old

I will guide us far away

To a place where all

The riddles unfold

At one point

We thought we have lost it

To the fog that has started

To spread in our heads

From the void a spark was lit

And we went on to join

Her with the noble watch

A cheering so loud

Close to combust me

All clear the trellis had come

Trembling in joy

Our shouting merged into

One to rise, land in sight

Far away

I’ll guide you far away

To a place mysterious and old

I will guide us far away

To a place where all

The riddles unfold
