about

Having already chosen the album title 'Many More Ways Than One' it then became a song in it's own right in the summer of 2019.......just in time to make it onto the album.

lyrics

In the port of Santiago
I did salute and sign my name
And fell in with a friendly crew
On a ship bound for Spain
When I asked the captain
Which course would we run
He answered me directly
"There's many more ways than one"

The wind it did carry us
And push us far ahead
But it became a hurricane
I feared we'd be left for dead
When I asked the question
Now what can be done
The crew they said in unison
"There's many more ways than one"

For a time I took to sailing
And lived a life at sea
I entertained the notion
That a captain I would be
When I asked the master
How this I could become
He answered me quite simply
"There's many more ways than one"

When I grew tired of sailing
I left respectfully
To go and seek my fortune
And what the land would yield to me
When I asked the merchants
Of the ways that riches come
They answered me quite clearly
"There's many more ways than one"

How I soon discovered
A truth I was not told
There is a deeper journey
And no happiness in gold
When I asked the prophet
How a heart can be won
He answered me quite slowly
"There's many more ways than one"

My searching days are over
I've found all I need
The pull of home grows stronger
Than the tides that carried me
Which path would take us
My travelling days are done
I know there is no answer
There's many more ways than one

Which paths will take us
Which course will we run
I know there is no answer
There's many more ways than one
Many more ways than one
Many more ways than one
