LYRICS


[Verse 1]

We were born before the wind,
Also younger than the sun,
There the bonnie boat was won, as we sailed into the mystic

Hark I hear the babies cry,
Smell the sea and feel the sky,
Let your soul and your spirit fly, as we sail into the mystic


[Chorus]

When that foghorn blows, I will be coming home
When that foghorn blows, I wanna hear it
I don't have to fear it


[Verse 2]

and I want to rock your gypsy soul
Straight down to the days of old
And magnificently we will fold into the mystic


[Chorus]

When that foghorn blows, I will be coming home
When that foghorn blows, I wanna hear it
I don't have to fear it


[Verse 3]

and I want to rock your gypsy soul
Straight down to the days of old
And magnificently we will fold into the mystic
