All these years I waited
|
'Cause I knew that you'd return.
|
No stranger's hand has touched this temple.
|
One candle slowly burned...
|
For you.
|
|
(Were you waiting too?)
|
|
For you...just for you.
|
|
I swear I heard you crying
|
On the cruel uncanny breeze.
|
I saw you crawling down there
|
On your bleeding hands and knees.
|
|
Now crawl right up to me,
|
My captain.
|
The good ship sails away forever..
|
Leave us be.
|
The good ship sails away forever.
|
The way it's meant to be.
|
|
The good ship sails away forever..
|
Leave us be.
|
The good ship sails away forever.
|
The way it's meant to be.
|
|
These were the gentle words she said,
|
I could not find her in my head.
|
I searched for little clues
|
But all the lights were glowing red.
|
|
And in the end I smiled politely,
|
Snatched my coat and fled.
|
|
From you.
|
|
Just from you.
|
Just from you.
|
|
But still I hear her crying
|
On the cruel uncanny breeze.
|
I see her crawling down there
|
On her bleeding hands and knees.
|
|
Come to me!
|
|
Come to me!
|
|
The good ship sails away forever.
|
Was never meant to be.
|
|
The good ship sails away forever.
|
Never meant to be.
|
|
Never meant to be...
