The Voyage Song lyrics without the chords
I am a sailor and you’re my first mate;
We signed on together, coupled our fate;
Hauled up our anchor, determined not to fail,
For the heart’s treasure together we set sail.
With no maps to guide us we steered our own course;
Rode the storms when the winds were gale-force;
Sat out the doldrums with patience and hope,
Working together we learned how to cope.
Life is an ocean, and love is a boat,
In troubled waters it keeps us afloat.
When we started the voyage there was just me and you:
Now gathered look around us, we have our own crew.
Together we’re in this relationship;
We built it with care to last the whole trip.
Our true destination’s not marked on a chart,
We’re navigating for the shores of the heart.
I am a sailor and you’re my first mate;
We signed on together, coupled our fate;
Hauled up our anchor, determined not to fail,
For the heart’s treasure together we set sail.
With no maps to guide us we steered our own course;
Rode the storms when the winds were gale-force;
Sat out the doldrums with patience and hope,
Working together we learned how to cope.
Life is an ocean, and love is a boat,
In troubled waters it keeps us afloat.
When we started the voyage there was just me and you:
Now gathered look around us, we have our own crew.
Together we’re in this relationship;
We built it with care to last the whole trip.
Our true destination’s not marked on a chart,
We’re navigating for the shores of the heart.

On The Voyage Song Lyrics
On this journey, we set sail
With the wind, we'll prevail
Through the storms and the unknown
We'll find our way, we're not alone
Chorus:
This is our voyage, our destiny
We'll brave the seas, we'll be free
Through the highs and the lows
We'll follow where the wind blows
Verse 2:
We'll leave behind the familiar shore
And all that we've known before
With each wave, we'll leave our fears
And chase our dreams, with no more tears
Chorus:
This is our voyage, our destiny
We'll brave the seas, we'll be free
Through the highs and the lows
We'll follow where the wind blows
Bridge:
The horizon calls, it's calling our name
We'll keep moving forward, we'll never be the same
With each passing day, our hearts will grow
As we navigate this voyage, we'll never let go
Chorus:
This is our voyage, our destiny
We'll brave the seas, we'll be free
Through the highs and the lows
We'll follow where the wind blows
Outro:
So let's raise our sails and set our course
We'll face the challenges with no remorse
For this voyage is ours, it's meant to be
And we'll sail on, to our destiny.
On this journey, we set sail
With the wind, we'll prevail
Through the storms and the unknown
We'll find our way, we're not alone
Chorus:
This is our voyage, our destiny
We'll brave the seas, we'll be free
Through the highs and the lows
We'll follow where the wind blows
Verse 2:
We'll leave behind the familiar shore
And all that we've known before
With each wave, we'll leave our fears
And chase our dreams, with no more tears
Chorus:
This is our voyage, our destiny
We'll brave the seas, we'll be free
Through the highs and the lows
We'll follow where the wind blows
Bridge:
The horizon calls, it's calling our name
We'll keep moving forward, we'll never be the same
With each passing day, our hearts will grow
As we navigate this voyage, we'll never let go

This is our voyage, our destiny
We'll brave the seas, we'll be free
Through the highs and the lows
We'll follow where the wind blows

So let's raise our sails and set our course
We'll face the challenges with no remorse
For this voyage is ours, it's meant to be
And we'll sail on, to our destiny.
