He'll sail on with the summer wind   That blows on this same day   Everybody calls him Pirate   Dark and handsome in his own way   And the fire in his eyes   Lit all the fire inside of me   And soon you were feeling   So much more than the wind and waves and sea      Chorus:   Pirate I'm gonna take your soul   I only want the right to love you   I know the sea won't let you go   Pirate, my love will only chain you down   So just know how much I love you   And then turn that ship around      Every time that he'd sail back to me   We'd fall in love again   And my face would fill with wonder   At all the places that he's been   But I knew his sweetest love song   Was when he heard the trade winds blow   And I loved him way too much   To tell the secret he should know      Chorus      Now as I watch in silence   Another young man goes to sea   And his silhouette is stirrin' up   A painful memory   And I know his heart is set to sail   But mine is set to cry   Cause I feel as the way I did   The day is Daddy said goodbye   I told him      Chorus
