First Class

A Sailor’s Song is a heartfelt song about distance, devotion, and the anchoring of love across miles of ocean. It’s both a love note and a survival song, a promise that love endures even when storms rise and miles divide. As a U.S. Navy Veteran and an Active Duty dependant I know what it is like on both sides of that torturous deployment op cycle. The daily challenges may differ but the struggle is very real on both sides. For all those military, and especially my Blue and Gold Navy folks, my heart goes out to you and I pray for a safe reunion. Fair winds and following seas.

Lyrics:

Nights get long, waves keep pullin’ me farther,
Moonlight writes your name on the water.
I close my eyes, but I can’t hold you,
Every mile just reminds me I owe you.

You’re at home breathing deep in the silence,
I’m at sea, fightin’ storms and the sirens.
Both of us caught in the same rolling tide,
Love’s our anchor, but it’s hard to survive.

This is a sailor’s song,
Singin’ to the shore where you belong.
Every note’s a message in a bottle,
Prayin’ love will carry through tomorrow.
Your memory’s the map that pulls me through,
I’m lost at sea, but I’m bound to you.

City lights fade, your pillow grows colder,
Unread letters are stacking in your folder.
I hear your laugh in the rush of the ocean,
But it breaks me, I can’t feel your devotion.

You’re awake while the clocks keep on lyin’,
I’m awake while the stars keep on cryin’.
Both of us reaching for what we can’t touch,
Love’s the harbor, but the wait hurts too much.

This is a sailor’s song,
Singin’ to the shore where you belong.
Every note’s a message in a bottle,
Prayin’ love will carry through tomorrow.
Your memory’s the map that pulls me through,
I’m lost at sea, but I’m bound to you.

When the storm feels heavy, hold on tight,
When the dark feels endless, think of our nights.
I’m coming home, so keep the fire burning,
Every tide that turns means my soul returning.

Baby, don’t let go,
Can you hear me in the undertow?
Every wave is whispering your name,
Distance hurts, but love won’t change.

This is a sailor’s song,
Singin’ to the shore where you belong.
Every note’s a message in a bottle,
Prayin’ love will carry through tomorrow.
Your memory’s the map that pulls me through,
I’m lost at sea, but I’m bound to you.

*** Not a professional *** but I love music and am having fun recording and mastering my own tracks. Huge learning curve on the DAW. Open to any input or feedback. I am learning a ton and am on an adventure trying to find my voice. I love writing lyrics, but not a big fan of the sound of my voice, 😂. I am just your average white collar Kentucky boy with bourbon blood living in daily excel hell as a business data analyst that needed a creative outlet. Let’s have some fun and celebrate life, love, and music.
