Your name means “from the sea”
So I don a captain’s hat
To find you how I can.
How hard can it be?
What keeps you from being next to me?
A sea on the other side of the world
Well, call me a sailor
Call a crew of dunces and ship hands
Give them rum, coins, rations
Deal with squabbles and scurvy
Mutiny and near failure
But my destination is true
Keep this galleon eastward
You are from the sea
And I come from that sea
To bring you to me.
