    THE VOYAGE
    by JOHNNY DUHAN
    I am a sailor, and you're my first mate
    We signed on together, we coupled our fate
    Hauled up our anchor, determined not to fail
    For the hearts treasure together we set sail.
    With no maps to guide us, we steered our own course
    Rode out the storms when the winds were gale force
    Sat out the doldrums in patience and hope
    Working together we learned how to cope.
    Life is an ocean and love is a boat
    In troubled water that keeps us afloat
    When we started the voyage, there was just me and you
    Now gathered round us we have our own crew.
    And together we're sailing this ship
    We built it with care to last the whole trip
    Our true destination is not marked on any charts
    We're navigating to the shores of the heart.
    Life is an ocean and love is a boat
    In troubled water that keeps us afloat
    When we started the voyage, there was just me and you
    Now gathered round us we have our own crew.

    My husband had a heart attack recently and we almost lost him. I love Christy Moore but had never heard this song till recently. It makes me cry but it's also beauitiful. We live in Scotland but I am Irish. Just a beautiful song that spoke to me. We have a crew if two and four beautiful grandweans. So very blessed.

    My grandads funeral song. In the merchant navy but always came back to his wife and children. The last of an old school generation. Rip Louis Monaghan

    One of the most beautiful songs in the world. Composed by the great Johnny Duhan and NO one can sing it as good as Christy..🚣🚣‍♀️🚣‍♂️🚤

    I remember first time we saw Christy around 1980 at the Royal Court Liverpool we were courting and it was amazing just being there and listening to the audience singing along - we were 20 and 18yrs old and pretty new to the folk scene. Married in 1984 and celebrating our 40 years soon.
    “The Voyage” is our song and is a mirror of our life. Our crew have flown the nest now and we actually live aboard our own narrowboat seeing out our last voyage.
    Peace ✌🏻 and love ❤️

    Never fails to fill my daft soft eyes. We gain a depth and vastness over the years with our soulmate BUT only if the arrow of time is honestly and openly aimed at all encountered especially the targets that may be tough to break through. A tiny dishonesty as that arrow flys from the bow will NEVER be a tiny distance from our intended emotional security and that one of a kind permeating love.

      I chose this song with my wife because it fit us so well. I'm a former sailor of the USN so it was perfect for us.

  • @deerparkclaremontresidents4576

    If legends are due a nod, well, get on with it! We saw a concert recently and it was so far beyond our expectations it's scary. Go now. Go see Christy now. If you do not you will regret it as long as you live. Drastic sounding yes but it is a life moment.
