John Denver - Calypso lyrics

To sail on a dream on a crystal clear ocean

To ride on the crest of a wild raging storm

To work in the service of life and living

In search of the answers of questions unknown

To be part of the movement and part of the growing

Part of beginning to understand.

Aye Calypso the places you've been to

The things that you've shown us

The stories you tell

Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit

The men who have served you so long and so well.

Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh

Oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee

Doo-dle ay ee.

Like the dolphin who guides you, you bring us beside you

To light up the darkness and show us the way

For though we are strangers in your silent world

To live on the land we must learn from the sea

To be true as the tide and free as a wind swell

Joyful and loving in letting it be.

Aye Calypso the places you've been to

The things that you've shown us

The stories you tell

Aye Calypso, I sing to your spirit

The men who have served you so long and so well.

Hi dee ay-ee ooo doo-dle oh

Oo do do do do do doo-dle ay yee

Doo-dle ay ee.

He dee ay-ee

Hi dee oh ooo

Hi dee ayee

Hi dee oh ooo.
