::: Flying Fish 1860 :::

I'm surrounded by ships that never sailed
And never knew the sea,
But the decks, the masts and riggings
Are all memories for me.

Together, we sailed for many years
With no rough seas or gales,
And every day brought a clear blue sky,
Plus a good wind in our sails.

Then one day, leaving me in tears,
I watched him slowly depart.
Someday, though, I'll again be First Mate
To that Captain who anchored my heart.
