Believe In We (A Poem)

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

Oh the ship is all loaded up.

With grain lumber and a wee bit of rum.

The clouds are parting and we see the sun.

It’s time to go out on our long long run.

🌊

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

The bosun cries and we take our place.

Shanty man sets us onto a pace.

Nothing matters in time and space.

We’re setting out on a hell of a race.

🌊

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

The anchor’s rising and it’s being stowed.

The ropes are dropping and being rolled.

Those gentle trade winds are beginning to blow.

And soon the waves will begin to show.

🌊

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

Storm clouds gather on our windward side.

The captain’s eyes are open wide.

He knows the stakes and he ain’t shy.

We work together or we might die.

🌊

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

Danger all around above and below.

Death waits patiently methodic and slow.

The wind is terrible it batters and blows.

We work together and we’re in control.

🌊

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

Storm clouds part and we all know.

Alive and well we are aglow.

Our port ahead it’s in our sights.

Safe harbor and a good good night.

🌊

Oh my crew, let’s believe in we.

If we’re gonna put this ship to sea.

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.

🌊

There’s a place we need to be.

Across the deep blue sea.

So please, please believe in we.
