The Pirate's Dream(Live)

歌詞

Sea-Horses call to each others wives Then break the eggs slipping down the other side Around them the wind is screaming at the spray For soaking the sea and drowning out the day Albatross circles, feathered in black Mourning the comrade who won't be coming back Plotting on the wind the fate of those below Hell-bent on vengeance, no mercy will they show Corks full of menlings face the teeth of the storm Beckoning mer-things putting away their coats Sliding off rocks diving down to their homes Dolphins chatter on faithful to the end Each with a plan for saving his very best friend The shark had invited their families for a feast Expecting a banquet, a dinner at the least Fear-crazy sailors cling helpless to the mast Run out of biscuit and the water will never last Old Davy Jones oils the locks on his chest The maker's quite deaf, after all he's very old Those that haven't drowned are dying slowly of the cold The time's drawing near, the timber will never last Each wretch on board sees his whole life spinning past Memories flood back, like falling onto knives Lovers, sons, sweethearts, but never never wives Down on their knees, they're praying for all they're worth Conjuring up words damn near forgot at birth Eternal Father, strong to save
