Lyrics:
Ran out the door some years ago
Slingin' words at my old man like thistles and stones
Said, "No need to worry, I'll never come home"
My mum cryin', "Don't go!" as I raced down the road
Straight through 'til sun fell, I kept up the pace
'Til darkness embraced me and I lost my way
Weary from travel and wet from the rain
I stopped at a tavern in broken-mast bay
Where a rough-cut man said, "What's your business, lad?"
I can't find my way back home
It's cold
It's dark
I'm all alone
He said, "My boy, you're not lost yet"
"Just follow the compass that beats in your chest"
Twelve years had gone as a wandering man
Searching for meaning in far, distant lands
Defied kings and queens and with foes, raised a glass
And fell for an outlaw named "Katie McMahon"
Oh, we sailed the sea seeking mountains of gold
And fountains of youth from the stories of old
Escaped from the perils and monsters below
But after it all, we had nothin' to show
Then Katie said, "My love, our journey's just begun"
"We can make our way back home"
"I'm here with you"
"You're not alone"
"I'll fight with you, 'til our last breath"
"To follow the compass that beats in our chest"
So we traded swords, our sails, and oars
For a simple life
Twenty years, she never left my side
'Til she passed, one night...
Well, my love, you made it home
Without you here, I'm so alone
But I will fight 'til my last breath
'Cause you are the compass that beats in my chest
Yeah, you are the compass that beats in my chest

Makes me cry every time man 🥲. Beautiful line and gorgeous song
Beautiful line that's for sure
@@I_just_workheresame 🥲

I cry to this
This song was so emotional I actually started crying. Please keep making people fall in love with your music and the stories in them
For real.
Same here, tears running down my cheeks
Me too 😭
i am feeling really emotional right now too
Never did I ever think I'd find a song to move me the way this one did. Bravo, sir!
so happy to hear another song, they never disappoint.
Im starting to think that this channel is talking about a little boy (unnamed) that ran away from home, and his songs are just his life story, starting with this one. "Compass" is for the first few years of his life as a pirate, early in his pirate life, he was lost, and didnt know what to do, then he met the love of his life, Katie Mcmahon, they sailed the seas for 20+ years, finding more treasures than any pirate that lived at the time, gaining money you could only dream of counting, but when they were done, they had nothing to show, they were still lost, they still had no home, (unnamed) lost faith, he thought they would never make it back home, but Katie, the everloving partner and crew member she is, re-kindled his hope, they sailed the seas again, one last time, 'til one night, she passed, he was alone, again.
Fast forward a few years, he fully embraced his life as a pirate, with "Bones", he sailed the seas, finding various treasures, becoming arrogant, and egocentric, then he remembered a tale from his mother, a tale about the boat named "The Shadow", an untammable boat, with all those who sailed it, die amidst the seven seas, never to be found, and of course, his ego got the best of him, vowing to be the first to tame it, setting sail tomorrow afternoon.
Fast forward the next morning, before setting sail, he sang a sea shanty, "Unsinkable", talking about how he is the best pirate to live, claiming to never lose to the seven seas, he wouldn't ever sink, never losing his life to the rough seas, and looking back at his achievements, you would've believed anything he ever said.
Fast forward a few hours, noon, he sailed to the last known sighting of "The Shadow", he would find the boat, and tame it, or thats what he thought he would do, after they arrived, they find it, finally, the boat of legends, but what they never thought of was that there was a mystical power gaurding the ship, an unholy beast with no origin, with the appearance of a beatiful woman, but do not let her looks fool you, she is as powerful as the drake passage, as dangerous as the north sea, and as mysterious as the ocean itself, with (unnamed) members all losing their lives, with him being the only one left, he impressed the embodiment of the ocean, but he would lose his eyes to it, so that he would never be able to sail another boat ever again, after the deadly encounter, he told the tale in the form of a song, "The Shadow", named after the cursed boat that took his sight, and his members.
But in this song. How does he know Katie?
@@AlexanderAnderson6783 i dont really think i need to explain to you why, as he literally said "Fell in love with an outlaw named, Katie Mcmahon" you can definitely find the time frame
@@AtsuraHayden what???
@@AlexanderAnderson6783 are you 10 or something???
@@AtsuraHayden no I just read through the comment. I think I'm getting somewhere. Apologies about that. Here
🎟️
Come to my show.
Sail North is exactly the kind of music I've been looking for in the past 2 years. I'm glad I finally found this.
Same here my friend
Same for me it makes me think of all the great pirate media I’ve watched it’s been a while since we’ve had a good one, Anyway to the captain 🍻
🍻 to the captain
@@JacksonHayes-jh9mx To captain North! 🍻
To the Captain 🍻
I can't believe the feeling behind this song, it's sad but it is just catchy and I am gonna throw this on loop. this going on my madden playlist.
Also to any new sail north fans show everyone some love and help keep a good community
Edit: most likes on my comment ever lol
This song speaks to the pirate soul and the compass rose tattooed on my chest with the coordinates to my home
I've had this on repeat for the last 24 hours. I don't need to go searching for any buried treasure, because I found Sail North ❤
Thank you for another wonderful ballad. This one nearly had me in tears. You have such a beautiful way with words and lyrics. Blessings to you.
And that's how the captain went out to sea looking for the untammable ship, basically looking to fill his void with placebo excitement searching for his end. And now he is cursed to live without a mind of his own still in pain
As a sailor this song makes my heart aches.... looking at the sea right now...remind me of home country. But sea called me and i answered there is no going back..only north
This all makes some kind of story that we have to piece together, all of these songs
@@Golden-Freddy-C.C exactly and i'm loving it
@@yuriatsugi3696 today! MY CREW. WE SET UPON THE SEA.
It went full circle
Captain North, definitely my next FAVORITE song of yours since the Tale of the Shadow. Keep them coming,Sir. Much better than most of the pointless garbage that comes out nowadays.
Sometimes songs can portray epic tales, but it's songs like these that touch the soul. Thank you, Sail North.😢❤
I completely agree 😊
Thank ye captain for blessing us once more. To the captain lads! 🍻
To the captain! 🍻
To the captain! 🍻
To the captain 🍻
Aye, to the captain!

I haven’t had a new song hit like this since I first found Great Big Sea 20 years ago. Fantastic.
What a beautiful treat. A song that touches the heart. Thank you ❤
"Follow the compass that beats in ur chest" I just got out of a relationship so that line helps ❤
ever since iv discorvered your music, ive put your songs on repeat constantly
"well my love you made it home" this song has made me so emotional
This is incredible I love it keep up the good work
"You are the compass that beats in my chest" made me shed a tear..
I listened to it once, *AMAZING.*
I listened to it again, *AMAZING.*
I listened to it again, *EMOTIONALLY AMAZING.*
I listened to it again, *I CRIED AT THE END BUT STILL AMAZING!!*
Yeah, it’s… bet you can’t guess…
*AMAZING!!*
But at the end when his love passed, I got so emotional-
And the WORDS he chose for the LYRICS at the end there, oml. Chills. CHILLS, AHH!
*”You are the compass that beats in my chest…”*
CHILLS.
I agree ❤
STOP YOU MADE ME CRYYY😭😭😭
You mate have natural talent, your music is so beautiful and unique. Your songs get better and better. You truly sing from the soul, it touches mine in many ways ❤❤
Amazing way to say to follow your heart, love it
Another beautiful and catchy song .
To add, it’s like something we’d hear in a good adventure movie.
Well he’s making a pirate series isn’t he maybe this will be in it
@@Greenwood314oh he is? That’s so cool!
Yeah apparently unsinkable his other song will be the main character theme
Ahoy there! May the twinkle in the eyes of those we love be a constant north star, leadin' us through the roughest seas. May their warm smiles be the first sight on reachin' safe harbor, fillin' our sails with the strongest winds to push on through any storm!
Thanks for the shantys.
May the wind always carry a tune that sets our hearts to singin'!
It's beautiful
“Slinging words at my old man” yea I gotta call my dad now fr
This song is so sweet that I cried. If this doesn't show what actual love is idk what does
In the end I wanted to see him finally return home to see his parents. The mom in tears really got to me!
This song is a masterpiece. Great storytelling, brought me to tears😢😢
That is the first time in my life that a song has almost made me cry. My chest kinda hurts now😢
This song is so beautiful, It made me cry 😢❤
I love your music and so do my kiddos. They always asking to listen to your songs
Wow, how heartwarming!
this reminds me so much of a song I'm trying to write myself, about wanting to explore the world and feeling trapped in the city I live in. I can feel and imagine and just see the story this song plays out in every word and beat
Ayyyy new Sail North song :D
Hope everyone reading this finds their compass ❤
Return of the King
This song hurts and I love it
This is incredible. Definitely going to my playlist!
YOUR A GOD THE GOAT!!!!!!!! THE LEGEND AND EVERY GOAT THING. IM ON A MISSION TY FOR MOTIVATION
This song is beautiful. Has me in Tears ❤. What a wonderful message.
Agreed.
This song makes me cry
I just realized this was only posted 9 hours ago and I am so happy I caught wind of an amazing band while they're still active for once! This song is gorgeous
Already love it bf even listening to it❤❤❤
You’re my favorite artist!! I listen to all your songs over and over again! I’m going to add this song to a playlist I have of your songs
Other than sailing the sea, this is almost a literal story about my life. I remember at 18 having to physically run away to get into the world. My mother trying to hold my arms as I pulled away and ran into the wind as fast as I could. Me swearing at my dad, telling him he doesn't know how the world works.
Went on an insane journey for 16 years of moving place to place and looking for more adventure. I was always looking for home.
Then one day I realized home is right where I am, wherever I go.
That has never left me to this day.
Your music is so good that I'm using it for a choir project even though it's kinda hard to find information on it.
It's rare for a song to make me start tearing up and feel a pain in my throat, but this did. It's such a beautiful song.
To the artist, I wanted to let you know that your music is incredible, and this song in particular touched me very deeply. I'm a father of 3, married to my best friend for going on 14 years, and this song brought me fully to tears. Best of an absolutely incredible series of songs so far, please know that you're making the world a more beautiful place.
Amazing music❤
Sail North..This is the first song ive cried...like...ive never understood why people cry over songs...You made me realize why...
Another great one! I love it!
At first, I thought that this song was gonna go on the usual trope of "child runs away from home to go on a long wandering journey, only to come back home to his parents at the end because they were always his home", but the story genuinely surprised me by having the main character look back and question his decisions, but never go back on them. He keeps moving forward, only stopping to look back when his hope and faith in himself are shaken, only to find his footing again and keep going. As someone who was kicked out of his mother's home and has never tried to go back despite everyone around me telling me I should, this song is deeply moving. In the time I've been away from my mother, I've grown, gone on many adventures, found the love of my life. I've looked back, but I've never tried to go back to her. Thank you for this, Sail North. You may not know it, but your songs have a profound impact on those who listen to them. Never stop creating 😊
I normally dont like songs about love. But this song is amazing and is an exception aa I really love it! ❤ Keep up the hard work and take breaks when you need them! 🥰😊
This was beautiful.. You did a great job . keep up the great work!!
Your music has been helping through a really rough time in my life lately, and especially with this one. I'm really excited to see what's in store for the future and hope you're truly enjoying the work you do.
I may not speak words of Wisdom but, I know one thing for sure.
Follow the Compass, that beats in your chest.
Im goin through a rough time rn. And this really hit home for me. Brought me to tears bc I miss the love that I lost. Thankyou for your masterful music.
I wish there was one more verse where he returns home and introduces his kids to his mom (dad's passed away), telling her all about Katie and how she would have loved her, and the song is that recounting to bring it full circle.
This is one of your best, right up there with Shadow.
Thats what I always say follow with ur heart.
Ive seen little clips of theis song and thought that they where ok but now holy sh!+ this is literally the best music ive ever heard plus i love pirate beat and songs so the obly thing i have to say is keep up the good work
I ment only😂
it's a good song for someone you lost especially the one you loved...
amazing
i love it
When he said "tell she passed one night" that suddenly got me really sad
Bro anyone I recommend your music too keeps telling me they listen to your songs daily
First
First one here! 😁
I love your stories ❤
I generally love songs that tell a story
Do you know of any other music creators like this one
@@HappyAcorn-pn7ydI don’t know if you know Makem and Clancy. Old Irish folk songs
Mean Mary tells some pretty good stories. Check out Sweet Jezebel
@@bonniemartin4093 love this one thank you
A beautiful sweet song. It made me cry a bit at the end.
This song genuinely hurt to listen too but damn do I love it. That feeling of being lost, falling in love but losing that someone and feeling lost once more. It’s life, life is unpredictable but damn does it have it’s time of beauty and cruelty. In times of hardship we begin to cherish everything good that comes and goes in our lives.
I freaking love your music and hope you continue with more emotional ones please! Haha
Please make a full version of Leave Her Johnny!! Would be awesome!
Peasants set aside ill save you all
Yay new lyric video and the channel has hit 100k subscribers 🎉🎉
The sadness in his voice
I wouldn't be surprised if he cried softly while singing this amazing song. The sad and somber emotion runs deep in this song.
Congrats on 100k!! You deserve it!! ❤
I love how the music explodes in harmony when he sings about them going to live a simple life
To me it's the song conveying that the best moments of his life weren't wandering and having grand adventures
It was when he simply spent time with the person he loved most
I’m convinced this man can’t make a bad song🤩
Edit: Also congrats on 100k subscribers 🎉
Running late for work was supposes to be there 30 minutes ago wouldn't have listened to this If I was on time
Second. Always waiting for your music ❤
Your not first your 2nd
@@Rengoku-gj7ledang 😭 there were like 5 people who said that so it’s fine then lol ima change it
Thank you, for not only writing a song that brought me to tears of happiness... But remind me of the ones who helped shape my life and miss greatly. May we never forget those that stuck by our sides till the end, and may we cherish the memories we had with them both the good and the bad. And may they watch over us wherever they are.
I love this song so much as I listened to it I couldn't help but draw parallels to my current D&D Character and his story he's going through right now as well as his backstory. I loved this so much keep up the good work.
I wish I could record and post my genuine reaction when I saw that our captain has gifted us another amazing song! Thank you! ❤️
Dude you are amazing at this keep up the good work your songs already touched so many people's hearts
This is so incredible, and I love how he already has so many subscriber's with so few songs.❤❤❤ He deserves it 😁
I love how all of his songs feel like they're connected. I don't know if it's on purpose but it all feels like it's one man telling a younger boy about his life.
I'm not sure if this one is connected to the others because Tale of the Shadow unless the captain escaped from the Shadow somehow
@@WarriorcatGerda I saw another comment that had this idea. Commenter's name is @AsturaHayden
"Compass" is first, about him becoming a pirate and the first 20+ years of his life.
"Bones" is when he fully embraces being a pirate when he hears a tale about this mythical, untameable ship, named the Shadow, with all who sailed it, die amidst the seas.
He sets out the next morning, after singing "Unsinkable", about how he is the best pirate and will never sink.
"Tale Of The Shadow" is about how he found the Shadow and awoke the mythical power guarding the ship in the form of a beautiful woman. The woman killed his crew, with him only surviving by impressing the embodiment of the ocean, but losing his eyes in the process, so that he could never again sail a ship of his own. So now he sings this cautionary tale in dimly lit bars, in the form of The Shadow, named after the ship which took his crew and his sight.
Never thought I would be tearing up to a song today
Great job! Can't wait for music from this channel
Sail north this has to be one of my favourite songs from you.
Also the crew loves it.
Im not crying. You're crying.
The goosebumps right now!!! My god so beautiful
You know you're blessed when you come home to a new Sail North song. This is beautiful!
I’m genuinely surprised and pleased at how fast this channel is growing
Love all of your music, Unsinkable is so epic!!! It’s one of my favorites ❤
This one is a close second tho ♥️I can see all of your music in movies ♥️
How u change grand epic tales to a sad love story
I can't remember the last time a song made me cry this hard. Very well done.
Yeah, the song got me too
Man your vocals are amazing and this one is no different. This one takes the cake for most heart-felt. All of your music is beautiful and catchy and honestly I feel that you will only come up with so much better.
This song has instantly became my partner and I song even though we have been together for a long time and I can't stop listening. It's up there with be so Good by Lucy Peach
YEAH, NEW SAIL NORTH SONG
Another Banger!! Good god, this one got me right in my chest. Definitely adding this one to my pirate playlist
