    Lyrics
    As the wind filled our sails
    in the roll of the tide we were bound for the open sea
    Were no storms nor no gales
    could dissuade us from our journey
    And we were steeped in the lore of the beast that we sought
    and we were sure of reward for the whales to be caught
    and we beseeched to our Lord leave us kill as we ought
    where the waves sing

    My harpoon pierced her eye
    but she rolled to the lee pulled the rope off the cleat ont' my leg
    I was dragged o'er the side
    and she dived for the cold dark deep
    And my ears they were screaming in pain as she dove
    and my head crushed in flames as my old life was gone
    but a spark passed into her next calf to be born
    where the waves sing

    Now I move with these whales
    and I sing with the tide as we swim through the open sea
    There're no storms nor no gales
    that can dissuade us from our journey
    But I can hear when the humans have drawn near our course
    and I know they can kill but yet they draw me so close
    there's just a memory inside me that draws me so close
    where the waves sing
