Pirates Will Return

Lyrics by Clémentine Delauney

I have chased a million signs
But felt it deep inside
The truth was right in front of my eyes

Fate is my own to create
And power’s all it takes
I had to set the sails by myself

And I sing my song at times
It goes by these very rhymes

Come to the land
Where pirates will return
Under strong command
See the world expand
Famous names to earn
Brave men will stand
‘Til powder-rooms will burn
As the ocean’s waves
Are the only graves
For free men on the stern

I’m a good friend to the rain
Alone against the pain
In silent nights where mysteries remain

Proud to break the bloody chains
Around the weary hands
My mission I will lead ’til the end

Once the glory days have died
I will leave it all behind

You should leave it all behind
Come and join the free men’s ride

Come to the land
Where pirates will return
Under strong command
See the world expand
Famous names to earn
Brave men will stand
‘Til powder-rooms will burn
As the ocean’s waves
Are the only graves
For free men on the stern

You should leave it all behind
Come and join the free men’s ride

Come to the land
Where pirates will return
Under strong command
See the world expand
Famous names to earn
Brave men will stand
‘Til powder-rooms will burn
As the ocean’s waves
Are the only graves
For free men on the stern
