Pebbles and Shells (Hawkes collection)/Homeward Bound
HOMEWARD BOUND
"We're homeward bound," the sailor sings,
"We skim the main with sea-gull wings;
We care not for the raging storm
When we can see the mast-head's form,
At Neptune's wrath all sailors laugh
When love is waiting at the wharf.
"We skim the main with sea-gull wings;
We care not for the raging storm
When we can see the mast-head's form,
At Neptune's wrath all sailors laugh
When love is waiting at the wharf.
