Christy Moore
I am a sailor and you’re my first mate, we signed on together we coupled our fate. We 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 we rode out the storms when the winds were gale force. We 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 waters it keeps us afloat. When we started the voyage, there was just me and you, now gathered round us we have our own crew. Together we’re in this relationship, we’ve built it with care to last the whole trip. Our true destination’s not marked on any chart, we’re navigating for the shores of the heart. Life is an ocean and love is a boat, in troubled waters it keeps us afloat. When we started the voyage, there was just me and you, now gathered round us we have our own crew. Life is an ocean and love is a boat, in troubled waters it keeps us afloat. When we started the voyage, there was just me and you, now gathered round us we have our own crew.

The Voyage lyrics
I am a sailor, 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 waters that keeps us afloat When we started the voyage, there was just me and you Now gathered round us, we have our own crew
Together we're in this relationship We built it with care to last the whole trip Our true destination's not marked on any charts We're navigating to the shores of the heart

Ceremony Reading: The Voyage by Christy Moore
Perfect if you're tying the knot with your children around you.
If ever a song encapsulated the joy of being married and creating a family together, then The Voyage, the song made famous by Christy Moore is it. For a couple who have been together for some time, already experienced life and grown together, and have started their family, I think this makes the most beautiful and apt ceremony reading. It's a perfect summary of how wonderful life's journey is.
The Voyage by Johnny Duhan, sung by Christy Moore
I am a sailor, 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
Together we're in this relationship We built it with care to last the whole trip Our true destination's 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 waters that keeps us afloat When we started the voyage, there was just me and you Now gathered round us, we have our own crew.

Overall Meaning. The song "The Voyage" by Christy Moore tells the story of two people who set sail on a boat, sailing through rough waters and facing various challenges together. The lyrics describe the strong bond between two individuals who have committed to traveling together, risking everything including their lives, for the sake of love.
Voyage 1989. I got my head turned here by Warner suits. They came to my home and sat there telling me I should remix the album. An A & R wanker who fell asleep during the meeting, a big shot from London, the head of WEA Ireland, my manager and me.† I listened to these shysters and took their counsel and allowed my album to be remixed.
