The cold steel flashed with a glittering pain
Now, I have to leave on the flagship Lester
And he'd seen her meet with this handsome sailor
She held his hand like she'd held no other
If you will wait and attend the weather
A girl who [Incomprehensible] and her handsome sailor
Amelia walked down along the harbor
Their arms and twines they lay still and dying
And he fell in love with her so completely
But you have my heart while the sea's in motion
And make our home across the Spanish Main
Her lips they parted in the setting sun
He could think of nothing for weeks to come
He shouted up to the stormy heavens
Which, if he knew it he would sure despise
But her heart held tight to it's own dark secret
Their dreams of livin' across the sea
He tracked them down where the ship was lying
In who's cabin she'd hoped to abide
Till young guns laid, as she chanced to be
She smiled too sweet at the handsome sailors
For us to wed and to sail together
And a towering rage now around him grew
He vowed he'd find them both and burn them through
And I am sailin' on the Spanish Main
And she gazed with longin' into his eyes
For she given her love to her own landlord
And it burned like a fire inside him
And one time held her, so indiscreetly
For gold and honor I hope to gain
Her dainty step on the cobbled street
My own intentions I will make plain
Steal a kiss on the evening tide
