I ll cross ten oceans, and I ll cross ten seas
I am a gannet and Iâm flying free
I was a sailor, been lost before
But now i m a coming, coming home to shore
I lost a woman, the one that i love
Thought she was given to me from the lord up above
I know that i ll find her, one of these days
Somewhere in a land, thatâs far away
Yeah in a land, thatâs far away
Grew up together, then we came undone
And then I found out years later that we d, had us a son
My life it was empty, where could they be
One day Iâm going to find them, but they wont see me
Cos im just a ghost upon the sea
Broken hearted and flying lonely
Oh my wings are spread wide as I, I ride the tide
But I m never reaching, those that I seek
My body is battered, and my wings are torn
Where s that sweet lady, oh wheres that sweet boy
You know that Iâd buy her dresses and that Iâd buy him some toys
I m never reaching, those that I seek
My body is battered, and my wings are torn
How will I survive, those winter storms
Cos I m just a ghost upon the sea
Yeah I m just a ghost upon the sea
