lyrics

ships are sailing.
the ships they are sailing, while the people are sleeping, and the winds 'round them wailing, their promises are leaving while innocent left weeping, on the shores they are keeping, and the clouds they come creeping, creeping in. the waters were raging what prophets were staging, a long time ago, oh so far, far from here, and i love you my dear, across the oceans and years, and when the clear skies come near then we'll sing again. soaring my darling, these cold waters are calling me out to sea, i must fight for thee, may i return. the widows are weeping for the dreams they see drowning and the children are staring don't know why she's in black, she's watching an ending of the life she'd lived mending, how will she explain that he's not coming back? on this sunday in winter, coldest day of the year, no ships have returned, on your cheeks freeze your tears, for it's been seven years and dozens ships i have sailed, should it take dozens more i'll return to our shores. soaring my darling, these cold waters are calling, i must fight for thee, oh may i return...but too many comrades have i had to bury at sea, and each day i'm only one wave away from their fate, too far away are our lovers on land as they wait to bleed, oh find a new love should my brothers return without me. soaring my darling, these cold waters are calling, me out sea, i must fight for thee, oh may i return.
