The night is soft and silent
New moon at my door
There's nothing near as quiet
As the light I'm looking for

And last time that it appeared
He was lying next to me
Last time I felt this near
To whispered ecstasy

And those who need adventure
They can sail the seven seas
And those who search for treasure
They must live on grander dreams

We rose and fell just like the tides
he filled my heart and soul and I
Buried all my dreams for someone else to find
In my pirate days

This world is kinder to
The kind that won't look back
They are the chosen few
Among us now
Unbowed somehow

And one day he turned to me
And before I took one breath
I knew I would only see
His shadow in what light was left

And those who need adventure
They can sail the seven seas
And those who search for treasure
They must live on grander dreams

If I've seen his face since then
It's only been in dreams, my friend
Since I came to the end
Of my pirate days

If I've called his name since then
It's only been in dreams, my friend
So I came to the end
Of my pirate days
