Seventh Sea - Dougie MacLean

Let me find out where we’ve landed

Somehow this doesn’t seem so right

We could be lost we could be stranded

In the darkness of the night

And I don’t see the broad horizon

Don’t feel the warmth of the sun

Which makes it all the more surprising

When you think on where we’ve come

We sailed the seventh sea

To touch the distant shore

But the truths we have to tell

Have all been told before

And let me fix that broken anchor

That worn rope was sure to fail

And I never got the chance to thank her

Before we all set sail

And will we reach that final promise?

Will all our hopes and dreams remain?

Now that the storm is up and on us

Well, will we ever meet again?

We sailed the seventh sea

To touch the distant shore

But the truths we have to tell

Have all been told before

Sometimes it’s hard to find the reason

Sometimes it’s hard to feel the joy

Well as with every passing season

We watch the girl and boy

And to be strong is to be grateful

And to be great is oft times small

But in the place that’s fear and hateful

It’s love that leads us all

We sailed the seventh sea

To touch the distant shore

But the truths we have to tell

Have all been told before
