lyrics

Once Peter decides to sail the seas in his father’s footsteps, his mother knows there is no stopping him. She sings by their seaside home, calling for her husband to watch over their beloved son from the spirit world.

Mother:

So the fates have chosen for me
And it’s a lot for me to try and take in
If I forget to breathe
It’s not that…

I don’t want to live.
Always I try
But I don’t understand
The meaning of a man

And you, you’re still a part of me,
Still part of everything around me

His eyes are blue his hair is red
Just like the sunset, I feel you in the air
I always knew, the day would come too soon
My love, watch over Peter, when he comes to you.
