Shiver Me Timbers - Bette Midler
Well I'm leaving my family I'm leaving all my friends My body's at home But my heart's in the wind And the clouds are like headlines Upon a new front page sky My tears are salt water The moon's full and high And I know Joe Conrad would be proud of me Many before me been called by the sea To be up in the crow's nest singing my saying Shiver me timbers let's all sail away And the fog lifting The sand shifting I'm drifting on out Old Captain Ahab got nothing on me Swallow me, don't follow me I'm traveling alone The water's my daughter I skip like a stone And the fog lifting The sand shifting I'm drifting on out Old Captain Ahab got nothing on me Swallow me, don't follow me I'm traveling alone The water's my daughter I skip like a stone Won't you please call my family Tell them not to cry My goodbyes are written By the moon in the sky Say nobody knows me I've got no reason to stay Shiver me timbers I'm sailing away La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, laaaa
