I remember when I crossed the sea I was dirty when you looked at me We've been sailing since the sun went down And were all so glad to hit the ground Pretty baby coming on my way And I'm wondering if I'd have to pay But something happened when you took my hand All at once I was a gentleman
My oh my, I didn't understand that I Was talking to you, talking to me A pirate's life was waiting on the other side But talking to you, was talking to me
Hubba hubba said my parrot friend This is not the time to make amends How this little bird can be so cool While I'm living my life like a fool Cutting onions I came to understand that I I felt lonely, I did, and I began to cry Was it true that we were meant to be Or should i get through and c'est la vie
My oh my, I didn't understand that I Was talking to you, talking to me A pirate's life was waiting on the other side But talking to you, was talking to me (Baby can't you see?)
I told the crew and they started laughing They gave me some rum and we all started dancing Running out to call you to the fun Imagine my surprise when i saw what's been done They cut the rope and let the boat go free That's why I'm writing from across the sea
My oh my, I didn't understand that I Was talking to you, talking to me A pirate's life was waiting on the other side But talking to you, was talking to me (From across the sea)
