I Came for the Sea

I came for the sea.
When the thunder split and the mast bonedow,
I laughed in the spray, said I won't sink slow.
If the deep ones call, then it'll take my name,
But I'll leave with the wind and the fire in my veins.
Hoist me up, let me go, salt on my sleeve—salt on my sleeve.
Hoist me up, let me go,
I came for the sea—I came for the sea.
Hoist me up, let me go, salt on my sleeve—salt on my sleeve.
Hoist me up, let me go,
I came for the sea—I came for the sea.
