This song is a tribute to The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, the timeless poem by Samuel Taylor Coleridge 1834. In this special version, we present a more melodic and atmospheric journey through guilt and salvation. A tale carried by the wind and the ghosts of the sea, now brought to life with a cinematic music video.
🎵 The Salty Dog Tales: In this track, we explore a Light Folk Rock and Melodic Shanty aesthetic. Differing from our heavier versions, this arrangement focuses on a melancholic and ethereal energy. We’ve blended acoustic textures with a rock soul to capture the solitary weight of the mariner’s duty. It is a somber, yet beautiful soundtrack for those lost in the ocean's memory.
📜 Lyrics: (Original musical arrangement by The Salty Dog)
It’s just another watch at sea,
Where the gentle breeze drifts cold,
The ship moves on in silence.
A dead body lies in quiet rest,
And the moon’s gaze settles on me.
The dead rise, one by one,
They work the ropes and sails,
No words,
No sound,
No life.
No wind moves their lips,
Yet each one knows his duty,
As if death
Were only another watch at sea.
I feared their hollow eyes,
But there was no hatred there —
Only obedience.
And I heard voices say:
“He prayed,
But he must keep on wandering.
The curse was broken,
But not removed.”
It’s just another watch at sea.
Then the ship sank beneath my feet,
The sea rang like a great bell.
Downward,
Deeper,
Into darkness.
I heard voices calling me,
Distant.
I was lifted,
Carried, washed,
Breathed again by other hands.
I was saved,
But never free.
No wind moves my lips,
I will carry out my duty.
From port to port,
From voice to voice,
Wherever I may pass,
It’s just another watch at sea.
It’s just
Another watch
At sea.
