| [00:17.13] |
To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean |
| [00:21.25] |
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm |
| [00:28.25] |
To work in the service of life and the living |
| [00:32.31] |
In search of the answers to questions unknown |
| [00:39.12] |
To be part of the movement and part of the growing |
| [00:43.87] |
Part of beginning to understand |
| [00:50.74] |
Aye, calypso, the places youve been to |
| [00:54.52] |
The things that youve shown us |
| [00:58.59] |
The stories you tell |
| [01:02.53] |
Aye, calypso, I sing to your spirit |
| [01:06.72] |
The men who have served you |
| [01:13.97] |
So long and so well |
| [01:16.85] |
Like the dolphin who guides you |
| [01:19.79] |
You bring us beside you |
| [01:40.15] |
To light up the darkness and show us the way |
| [01:43.97] |
|
| [01:51.50] |
For though we are strangers in your silent world |
| [01:55.99] |
To live on the land we must learn from the sea |
| [02:02.80] |
To be true as the tide |
| [02:05.11] |
And free as the wind-swell |
| [02:07.30] |
Joyful and loving in letting it be |
| [02:14.38] |
Aye, calypso, the places youve been to |
| [02:18.23] |
The things that youve shown us |
| [02:22.85] |
The stories you tell |
| [02:26.16] |
Aye, calypso, I sing to your spirit |
| [02:33.91] |
The men who have served you |
| [02:38.04] |
So long and so well |
| [02:39.98] |
Aye, calypso, the places youve been to |
| [02:45.41] |
The things that youve shown us |
| [02:49.59] |
The stories you tell |
| [02:53.04] |
|
| [02:53.60] |
Aye, calypso, I sing to your spirit |
| [02:57.47] |
The men who have served you |
| [03:07.41] |
So long and so well |
| [03:11.47] |
