• The Day The Tall Ships Came

Out of the mists of time they came
topsails flying high
Like phantoms of the past they flew
on billowed wings of white
fresh as the winds of morning,
light as the ocean spray.
A wonder to behold they were
as they sailed upon their way.

Chorus:
Windjammer, sloop and ketch,
brigantine and yawl,
from far off corners of the world
they left their ports of call
great and noble ladies
true sirens of the sea
they brought their nation's blessings to
the land of liberty

And those of us who lined the shores
that morning in July,
and watched in silent wonder as
the ships passed slowly by,
could hear them calling to us
from beyond the winds of time
and feel the rolling of the decks
and taste the salty brine.

Chorus

One day they'll tell the story
of a day that's long gone by
When the Tall Ships came a-sailin'
with their masts up to the sky
And the lives of we that saw them
will never be the same
And the world will all remember
The Day The Tall Ships Came.

Chorus
