SEA FEVER
I must go down to the sea again,
to the lonely sea and the sky.
And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by.
And the wheel's kick and the wind's song
And the white sails shaking,
And a gray mist on the sea's face,
And a gray dawn breaking.

I must go down to the sea again,
for the call of the running tide
is a wild call and a clear call that may not be denied.
All I ask is a windy day with the white clouds flying,
And the flung spray and the blown spume,
and the seagulls crying.

I must go down to the sea again,
to the vagrant gypsy life,
To the gull's way and the whale's way,
where the wind's like a whetted knife.
And all I ask is a merry yarn from a laughing fellow-rover,
And a quiet sleep and a sweet dream
when the long trip's over.
