Just off the coast of this rocky shore.
Deep down under these crashing waves.
Buried beneath this soft, white sand.

Lies a locket from a pocket ?
A story steeped in lore.


There was a girl. There was a boy.
There was a full, round moon.
There was a ship. There was a trip.

He would come home soon.
A parting kiss. A long embrace.
And, just in case. A good luck charm.

Arm in arm. And then apart.
She gave him ? her heart.


Chorus:
Once there were pirates on the rolling sea.
Thunder and lightning were a mystery.

Fleets of trade ships sailed into history.
Can you sift through the wreckage
To find treasure in me?


There was a storm. The masts were torn.
The ship was lost ? one afternoon.

At this she wept. But he was swept ?
Gently to a small lagoon.
A cast away. A distant land.

And in his hand. A good luck charm.
Safe from harm. He watched alone.
For a ship to bring him home.


Chorus


There was a man ? too old to stand.
There was a waning moon.
There came a ship. Another trip.

He would be home soon.
He saw her face. A state of grace.
And in this very space.

Arm in arm. They gave the charm ?
A final resting place.


Chorus
