How could he know this new dawn's light Would change his life forever? Set sail to sea, but pulled off course By the light of golden treasure Was he the one causing pain With his careless dreaming? Been afraid, always afraid Of the things he's feeling He could just be gone He would just sail on He'll just sail on How can I be lost, when I've got nowhere to go? Shovel streets of gold How come it's got so cold? And how can I be lost, when my ship was made to drift? And how can I blame you When it's me I can't forgive? These days drift on inside this fog It's thick and suffocating His sinking life, outside its hell Inside, intoxicating Ships run aground. Like his life The water's much too shallow He goes down, down with his ship
Sinking in the shadows Now a castaway They've all gone away All gone away How can I be lost, when I've got nowhere to go? Shovel streets of gold How come it's got so cold? And how can I be lost, when my ship was made to drift? And how can I blame you When it's me I can't forgive? Forgive me Forgive me not Why can't I forgive me? Set sail to sea, but pulled off course By the light of golden treasure How could he know this new dawn's light Would change his life forever? How can I be lost, when I've got nowhere to go? Shovel streets of gold How come it's got so cold? And how can I be lost, when my ship was made to drift? And how can I blame you When it's me I can't forgive?
