about

This song is inspired by my time sailing off the coast of Scotland and Northern Europe during my cadetship on coastal oil tankers. It was really special seeing familiar places from an entirely new perspective.

lyrics

Small voyages that take a night and day
Rocking around as you're underway
Not noticing the months you'll be away
Counting the hours on 4-8s
Counting the miles left in your wake

Small voyages the ones you remember best
Not how far you're going to travel West
Or if you're in or out of hours of rest
Struggling on the Pentland Firth
Trying to keep your course

Small voyages that take a night and day
Rocking around as you're underway
Doesn't matter even if you're making way
Just riding out the storm
Keeping the ship from harm

Homecomings the last time you alter course
Sailing back onto the Firth of Forth
Sailing until you reach your port
This is what you do it for
This is a voyage worth
