[Verse 1]
All the ships in all the harbours
Waiting for our sons and daughters
To carry them away
And weighing anchors from the shoreline
We will loose the ties that love binds
With our hearts full on that day

[Chorus]
The winds will carry them away
To safer harbours
There is a destiny we pray
Where calmer waters
Will turn the tide to moonlit skies
Oh, life is sweet there
No tears will fill the salt air
Our dreams will yet arrive
In safer harbours

[Post-Chorus]
Oh

[Verse 2]
In the distant early morning
The seas of fate are warming
To our legacy of hope
And as youthful souls awaken
Blessed with promise not forsaken
Sunlight dance upon the waves
For all their days

[Chorus]
The winds will carry them away
To safer harbours
There is a destiny we pray
Where calmer waters
Will turn the tide to moonlit skies
Oh, life is sweet there
No tears will fill the salt air
Our dreams will yet arrive
In safer harbours
The winds will carry them away
Our sons and daughters
There is a destiny we pray
Where calmer waters
Will turn the tide to moonlit skies
Oh, life is sweet there
No tears will fill the salt air
Our dreams will yet arrive
Our dreams will yet arrive
In safer harbours

[Outro]
Oh
