Oh the way theyll never know
A wife is left with a child Ill never hold
I fear my end will be One of the many tales untold The sky is dark no stars in sight
There is no way to guide us
Through this night A thousand miles from the coast
Dead reckoning weve lost all hope
As the waves crash over on the bow I listen as the wind begins to howl I hear the sirens singing out
A luring sound with no one in sight
They are Too close to my ear tonight This is my last mayday call
This shining ocean tells it all
A reflection of what I will be In the Water Half the deck has gone under
Every possession I have is thrown
As I begin to pray But not for this day The ship is lost its going down
The crew has gone no ones around
What else can I do I grab the wheel and think of you
