Lyrics
On the streets of the city he walks with a grace
A gentleman's charm a smile on his face
He tips his hat his words soft and kind
In the world of the land he falls right in line.
But beneath the suit and tie there's a fire untamed
The call of the ocean where he's not the same
A secret world waits where he's truly free
Where the wind and the waves set his spirit to be.
He's a gentleman on land but a pirate on the sea
Bound by the rules where the roots run deep
But the ocean's wild and it calls to the free
On land he conforms but at sea at sea he 's a pirate free
In the halls of the city he plays by the book
Every word measured every step by the hook
But out on the water he answers to none
With a heart full of daring he chases the sun.
The tide pulls him under the stars light his way
In the night of the ocean he finds his escape
The waves know his name they sing him a tune
A symphony of freedom under the moon.
He's a gentleman on land but a pirate on the sea
Tamed by the shore but the waves make him free
Where the land has its chains the sea lets him be
On land he conforms but at sea he's released.
On land he's a man of order of pride
But the sea strips away all the masks and the lies
It's where his soul dances wild and untamed
A pirate at heart with no need for a name.
He's a gentleman on land but a pirate on the sea
Bound by the rules where the rules run deep
But the oceans wild and it calls to be free
On land he conforms but at sea at sea he's a pirate free
He's a gentleman on land but a pirate on the sea
Bound by the rules where the roots run deep
But the ocean's wild and it calls to the free
On land he conforms but at sea at sea he 's a pirate free
In the heart of the storm or the calm of the bay
The pirate within him will never betray
For the sea is his home where his soul runs free
A gentleman on land But at sea a pirate he will be
