Lyrics
We're adrift on a sailboat

My love is the sea

Yours is the horizon

Constant and steady



You set my limbs locked hard afloat

Lifted my lonesome sails

The tide is out, the moon is high

We're sailing



Darling, your love is healing

It makes the bitter sweet

Warms the winter to spring again

Secures the colds defeat



We're cutting anchor

Casting out

Into the glorious deep

The tide is out, the moon is high

We're sailing

We're sailing

We're sailing
rhivolution: Uhura from Star Trek TOS, leaning over and laughing (oh hell yes: Uhura (TOS))

That high-pitched sound you hear is my squee. Thank you so much, Festividder! What a perfect song choice--I can't picture much better for these two--and you've constructed it so well visually from their looks and actions. A beautifully lyrical vid with the grace of the ship itself...wordplay only slightly intended. Many thanks!

You are very welcome! I'm so glad this pleased you. I fell for Aubrey/Maturin last year (so incredibly long after everyone else) and was happy to see this request during signups. Even if it meant staring at everyone's terrible hair for days and days. :)

I had a couple of other ideas to make in addition which would have taken very different tones, but there wasn't enough time. Maybe next year. :) And you got that nice treat from rhoboat anyhow.
