letra de st. john's waltz - ron hynes

oh the harbour lights are gleaming
and the evening’s still and dark
and the seagulls are all dreaming
seagull dreams on amherst rock
and the mist is slowly drifting
as the storefront lights go dim
and the moon is gently lifting
as the last ship’s coming in
all the sailors got a story
some are true, some are false
but they’re always wrecked and they’re up on the deck
dancin’ the st. john’s waltz

oh we’ve had out share of history
we’ve seen nations come and go
we’ve seen battles rage over land and stage
four hundred years and more
for glory or for freedom
for country or for king
or for money or fame but there are no names
on the graves where men lie sleeping
all the nine to fives survive the day
with a sigh and a dose of salts
and they’re parkin’ their cars and packin’ the bars
dancin’ the st. john’s waltz

oh my heart is on the highway
and i’m sold on goin’ to sea
all the planes fill the skyway
the trains run swift and free
so leave the wayward free to wander
leave the restless free to roam
if it’s rocks in the bay or it’s old cliche
you’ll find your way back home
so don’t question or inquire
what’s been gained, what’s been lost
in a world of romance don’t miss out on the chance
to be dancin’ the st. john’s waltz
