Lyrics
*(Verse 1)*
Found an old plank by di riverside bend
Some rusty nails and a net fi mend
Everybody laugh when mi start dat day
"Dat pile a junk nah float away"
Weeks inna sunshine, weeks inna rain
Tar pon mi fingers and sweat pon mi brain
Shape every curve with mi own two hand
Dreamin' of blue water and white sea sand
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Mi hear di breeze whisper soft and low
"Build yuh boat, and someday go"
*(Chorus)*
Wind inna di sail, wind inna mi soul
Carry dis old boat where di trade winds roll
Wind inna di sail, wind inna mi mind
Leave all di heavy tings far behind
Wind inna di sail, hear di ocean sing
Mi build di boat, but di wind build di journey
*(Verse 2)*
Launch day mornin', water calm and still
Heart beat harder than a blacksmith mill
Push her afloat and mi hold mi breath
Wonder if she sink straight down to death
But she rise easy and she kiss di tide
Outriggers dancing pon either side
Salt inna di air and sun pon mi face
For di first time ever mi feel outta place
*(Pre-Chorus)*
Cause di sea so wide and di sky so tall
Yet somehow mi feel part of it all
*(Chorus)*
Wind inna di sail, wind inna mi soul
Carry dis old boat where di trade winds roll
Wind inna di sail, wind inna mi mind
Leave all di heavy tings far behind
Wind inna di sail, hear di ocean sing
Mi build di boat, but di wind build di journey
*(Bridge)*
Flying fish jump where di moonlight gleam
Silver wings flash like a sailor dream
No engine noise and no smokestack cry
Just water below and stars up high
Listen to di rigging hum and sway
Listen to di words dat di sea nah say
Every wave tell stories old and true
Every mile teach somethin' new
*(Breakdown Hook)*
Wind pon di water
Wind pon mi skin
Wind pon di canvas
Pull me again
Wind pon di water
Wind pon mi soul
Further tomorrow
Than yesterday roll
*(Final Chorus)*
Wind inna di sail, wind inna mi soul
Carry dis old boat where di trade winds roll
Wind inna di sail, wind inna mi mind
Leave all di heavy tings far behind
Wind inna di sail, hear di ocean sing
Mi build di boat, but di wind build di journey
Wind inna di sail, hear di ocean sing
Mi build di boat, but di wind build di journey
Mi build di boat...
But di wind build di journey...
