Song by Duncan Sheik<br /><br>

There once was a pirate<br>

Who put out to sea<br>

His mates all around him<br>

No maiden on his knee<br>

Oh sail for a little<br>

A little little litte<br>

Oh sail for a little <br>

Til she finds him<br>

<br>

There once was a maiden<br>

Who wandered the mead<br>

To gather blue violets<br>

Her mama would need<br>

A wail through the willows<br>

All hollow through the willows<br>

She’ll wail through the willows <br>

‘Til she finds him<br>

<br>

The sea was so violent <br>

The crew went below<br>

They begged him to join them<br>

But he would not go<br>

Oh sail a little little<br>

For just a little little <br>

Oh sail for a little <br>

‘Til she finds him<br>

<br>

Her heart was so laden<br>

She fell by a tree<br>

Sang of some pirate<br>

Who haunted the sea <br>

A wail through the willows<br>

All hollow through the willows<br>

She’ll wail through the willows <br>

‘Til she finds him<br>

<br>

A wail through the willows<br>

(sail for a little)<br>

All hollow through the willows<br>

(the willow willows)<br>

She’ll wail through the willows <br>

(sail for a little)<br>

‘Til she finds him<br>

<br>

He’ll sail for a little<br>

A little little litte<br>

He’ll sail for a little <br>

‘Til she finds him<br>

<br>

He’ll sail for a little ‘til she finds him<br>

<br>
