Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We were born before the wind
Also younger than the sun
Ere the bonnie boat was won
As we sailed into the mystic
[Verse 2]
Hark, now hear the sailors cry
Smell the sea and feel the sky
Let your soul and spirit fly
Into the mystic
[PreChorus]
And when that foghorn blows I will be coming home
Yeah, when the foghorn blows, I wanna hear it
I don't have to fear it
[Chorus]
And I wanna rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And magnificently we will fold into the mystic
[PreChorus]
When that foghorn blows, you know I will be coming home
Yeah, when that foghorn whistle blows, I gotta hear it
I don't have to fear it
[Chorus]
And I wanna rock your gypsy soul
Just like way back in the days of old
And together we will fold into the mystic
[Outro]
Come on, girl
Too late to stop now
