The treasure lies buried, far far away
And there lies the reason why I cannot stay
I must sail to the Island where X marks the spot
And as a rich man return to the one unforgot
So Drink My Treasure, drink all of my love
Drink for the times of wine, mead and rum
Yes Drink My Treasure, drink all of my love
Drink for the times of our story unsung
Yet You followed me ‘cross, you hid in the hold
surrounded by cargo in the ocean so cold
disobeying my wish, to not risk yer young life
If you only had listened, you’d still be my wife
So Drink My Treasure…
But attempting to hide, on a ship crewed and small
There’s unfortunate chance, that one might slip and fall
All I heard was a splash, and your voice full of fear
Now you’re lying here cold as I shed my last tear
So Drink My Treasure…
The Cannons a’blazing, the wind blowing strong
In the harvest of Ocean is where we belong
I’ll bury my Treasure and I’ll leave her in peace
I’ll remember you always ’til my hearts beating cease
So Drink My Treasure…
