Valparaiso Lyrics

Chase the dog star

 Over the sea

 Home where my true love is waiting for me

 Rope the south wind

 Canvas the stars

 Harness the moonlight

 So she can safely go

 Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso

 

 Red the port light

 Starboard the green

 How will she know of the devils I've seen

 Cross in the sky, star of the sea

 Under the moonlight, there she can safely go

 Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso

 Valparaiso

 

 And every road I walked would take me down to the sea

 With every broken promise in my sack

 And every love would always send the ship of my heart

 Over the rolling sea

 

 If I should die

 And water's my grave

 She'll never know if I'm damned or I'm saved

 See the ghost fly over the sea

 Under the moonlight, there she can safely go

 Round the Cape Horn to Valparaiso

 Valparaiso

 Valparaiso

 Valparaiso
