Shiver Me Timbers Lyrics - Live At Last - Bette Midler

Well, I'm leavin' my family, leavin' all my friends 

My body's at home, but my heart's in the wind 

Where the clouds are like headlines upon a new front page sky 

My tears are salt water, the moon's full and high 

And I know Joe Comrade would be proud of me 

And many before me been called by the sea 

Come up to the crows nest singin' your saying 

Shiver me timbers, I'm sailing away 

And the fog's lifting, the sand's shifting, I'm drifting on out 

Old Captain Ahab's got nothin' on me 

Swallow me, don't follow me, I travel alone 

The water's my daughter, I skip like a stone 

And the fog's lifting, the sand is shifting, I'm drifting on out 

Old Captain Ahab I'm longing to hear from you 

Swallow me, don't follow me, I'm traveling alone 

The water, she's my daughter, I'll skip like a stone
