We’re on Our Way Lyrics by Valerie Vigoda

Ernest Shackleton Loves Me (Original Cast Recording)

2018

[SHACKLETON, spoken]
And now, a sea shanty to inspire us all. Shanty, men!
[SHACKLETON]
Oh darling, my darling, with you I long to be
[BRAVE AND HEARTY MEN]
With a hey and a ho and we're on our way
[SHACKLETON]
Oh darling, my darling, as I sail upon the sea
[BRAVE AND HEARTY MEN]
With a hey and a ho and we're on our way
[SHACKLETON]
One day we'll drop anchor and go on the shore
[BRAVE AND HEARTY MEN]
With a hey and a ho and we're on our way
[SHACKLETON]
And never go out on the waves anymore
[BRAVE AND HEARTY MEN]
With a hey and a ho and we're on our way
[SHACKLETON]
But until that fine day we will keep sailing on
Through the storm and the wind and the grey of the dawn
And we might hit some really rough seas now and then
But we've braved them before, and we'll brave them again
For my love, it is timeless and vast as the skies
It is strong as the tide and the waves when they rise
It is I, Ernest Shackleton, here in command
And I promise, my darling
We're gonna find land
[KAT, spoken]
God, I'm a sucker for a song...no, what am I saying? This is crazy!
[SHACKLETON, spoken]
Well, so is being an explorer or an artist. Please, my muse, join me on your violin
[KAT, spoken]
It's an electric violin, actually
[SHACKLETON, spoken]
How can that be?
[KAT, spoken]
Oh! It has a- it has a spark to it
[SHACKLETON, spoken]
Ah, a spark. Of course, it's just like you. Join me
[electric violin solo]
[SHACKLETON]
Until that fine day we will keep sailing on
Through the storm and the wind and the grey of the dawn
And we might hit some really rough seas now and then
But we've braved them before and we'll brave them again
For my love, it is timeless and vast as the skies
It is strong as the tide and the waves when they rise
It is I, Ernest Shackleton, here in command
And I promise, my darling
We're gonna find land
[SHACKLETON/KAT]
Darling, my darling, with you I long to be
[BRAVE AND HEARTY MEN]
With a hey and a ho and we're on our way
[SHACKLETON/KAT]
Darling, my darling, as I sail upon the sea
[SHACKLETON, spoken]
Now I know it's unusual, getting a call from a dead explorer. But please, my muse, believe in me, for I, Ernest Shackleton, believe in you. After hearing your music, how could I not?
[SHACKLETON/BRAVE AND HEARTY MEN]
With a hey and a ho and we're on our way
