Sea Songs

Like sailors anywhere, the beings of Promise have developed a number of sea songs, for boredom, for expressing the sadness of being away from home, and for warning of dangers in the waves. Here are a few.

Me and the Sea

There once was a being who pushed out to sea, I wished him good luck, and the last thing he said to me, Boy I'll be back soon, don't you worry bout me, I've lived all my life, just me and the sea.

The sky grew dark, the very next day. The storm shook the city and out to the bay. The light of the tower, shone for all to see, but it didn't reach his ship, far out in the sea.

When the sea had calm, and the skies become clear, the people of the city gathered and cheered. The ship was returning, sailing smoothly to rest, but the being who had left, had passed his last test.

I own the ship now, the sky looks mighty grim. I'll not back away, I'll be as brave as him. For the sea is my home, forever it will be. There's nothing at all, but me and the sea.

There's nothing at all, but me and the sea.
