   C
To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean
                                      Dm
To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm
   C
To work in the service of life and the living
                                        Dm
In search of the answers of questions unknown
      C
To be part of the movement and part of the growing
                          G
Part of beginning to understand


F                C             F    C
Aye, Calypso the places you've been to
    F                  C             G7          C
The things that you've shown us, the stories you tell
F               C            F  C 
Aye, Calypso, I sing to your spirit
    F            C             G7          C
The men who have served you so long and so well

C
Like the dolphin who guides you, to bring us beside you
                                         Dm
To light up the darkness and show us the way
    C
For though we are strangers in your silent world
                                           Dm
To live on the land we must learn from the sea
      C
To be true as the tide and free as a wind swell
                                G
Joyful and loving in letting it be


F                C             F    C
