Hey yo, said the captain
Hey yo, said the sea
You sail every direction
And still stay close to me

Hey yo, said the captain
Hey yo, said the ship
You ride with my protection
Don't you forget

The ocean will bring you home

Hey yo, said the captain
Hey yo, said the time
If you forgive and you listen
You’ll stop asking why

The ocean will bring you home

The storm will come
Your boat may overturn
You’ll swim into the underwater void
It'll drown out all the noise

Hey yo, hey yo
Hey yo, said the captain
Hey yo, said the ghost
You dream of me often
I loved you the most

The ocean will bring you home

The storm will come
Your boat may overturn
You’ll swim into the underwater void
It'll drown out all the noise

Hey yo, ooh

The ocean will bring you home
