My ship is sinking
My ship is sinking
And I’ve been thinking
About giving in
Yeh, I’ve been stronger
But that’s not true any longer
Not since my love left me for western waters
She never said goodbye
Hardly gave me a glance, but with a sigh
she said “I think you know what I’m about to do”
And my heart, it then sank low
and the pull from the undertow
brought it deeper and deeper below
Further and farther
into the deep blue
My ship is sinking
My ship is sinking
And I’ve just been drinking
Missing you
What a cruel and crooked god
To toss around the waves
And send the desperate fisherman
to a salty grave
I haven’t seen the sun in weeks
And the storm still rages on
I wonder if the waters will calm
When I’m sunk and gone
