The ship's up from the sea to the sky, cry, hey, hold on one sorry scream and a desperate cry, cry, hey, hold on Their lives pass before them they die, hey, hey, hey
The sea yawns like a boiling hell, cry, hey, hold on And souls disappear with the toll of that bell, cry, hey, on The arms of the sea they are dragging down, hey, hold on And sorrows and they are lost as they drown, hey, hey, hey
How strange you think that the sea was their way And a death is the price they pay For their living was made the deep To their people in comfort and keep, keep all the and places there Never to be seen again, never to be loved and their embrace And the kiss has a bitter taste
Now all that remains is the cruel sea, hey, hold on And of things that used to be, hey, hold on No stone marks the place of watery grave, cry, hey, hold on Together they die both the weak and the brave, cry, hey, on
The arms of the sea they are dragging down, hey, hold on And sorrows and sins they are lost as they drown, hey, on The sea yawns around like a boiling hell, hey, on And souls disappear the toll of that bell, hey, hold on
Now all that remains is the deep sea, hey, hold on And wreckage of that used to be, hey, hold on No stone marks the place of that grave, cry, hey, hold on they die both the weak and the brave, cry, hey, hold on
The arms of the sea they are dragging them down, hey, on And sorrows and sins they are lost as they drown, hey, on The sea around like a boiling hell, cry, hey, hold on
