Alexander Selkirk Songtext
von Last Forever

I had a dream the other night my ship had sprung a leak
And I woke up on an island in the middle of next week

Singing blow you winds in the morning and blow you winds high ho
Oh clear away your running gear and blow you winds high ho

I′m an ordinary sailor or at least I used to be
Until I argued with my captain and he abandoned me

Singing blow you winds in the morning and blow you winds high ho
Oh clear away your running gear and blow you winds high ho


Now I've got this private island made of bone and blood and skin
And what I cannot live without I learn to live within

Oh blow you winds in the morning and blow you winds high ho
Singing clear away your running gear and blow you winds high ho

I′ve grown to love the struggle of surviving in the wild
There is no need to rescue me now that I'm reconciled

Singing blow you winds in the morning and blow you winds high ho
Oh clear away your running gear and blow you winds high ho

It has been so many years since I put out to sea
It looks like I've a lifetime here that′s coming home to me


Oh blow you winds in the morning and blow you winds high ho
Oh clear away your running gear and blow you winds high ho
