FULL SPEED AHEAD
My ship was sailing across the sea...
with you by my side ...
the winds are raging, from the storm
there was, no place to hide.

Upon the sea, we 're tossed about,
waves around us churn.
But you, my brave one, won't give up.
The storm, you think, you'll turn.

You stand so tall and so strong,
your clothes around you hang.
You're fighting, for all you're worth,
Stuff all around us bang.

The water flows, from all sides.
Smacking you to the floor.
But being the man. that you are
you just stand up for more.

I know you'll win this battle.
Your will is very strong.
I'll put all my trust in you.
You can do no wrong.

And so you fight and fight some more
you simply won't say die.
I can still hear, in my mind,
Your joyous, triumph cry.

"Damn the torpedos..full speed ahead.."
Yep ! We lived to tell this tale.
I'll never forget the day we set ship,
and on the seas we sailed.

If you can't make it so,
you need to let it go!
