Last Farewell
There's a bird over my shoulder
I can see upon the wing
And as we leave the sight of England
No longer will I hear you sing
Riding high above the ocean
Beyond the rainbow far away
Darkest in a month of Sundays
No moon to guide the way
As we steam into the darkness
High above the ocean floor
Like a cloud betrayed by moonlight
In the dark I see no more
As we touch so many sleeping
Our jeopardy will soon be known
And as the giant is upended
Helpless into the dark we're thrown
Now the icy cold consumes me
Stars I've never seen before
Shining like million diamonds
Will they shine for evermore
As the soul is drifting from me
The story's end, a tale to tell
I will not sink into the darkness
I have not bade my last farewell
I have not bade my last farewell
I can see upon the wing
And as we leave the sight of England
No longer will I hear you sing
Riding high above the ocean
Beyond the rainbow far away
Darkest in a month of Sundays
No moon to guide the way
As we steam into the darkness
High above the ocean floor
Like a cloud betrayed by moonlight
In the dark I see no more
As we touch so many sleeping
Our jeopardy will soon be known
And as the giant is upended
Helpless into the dark we're thrown
Now the icy cold consumes me
Stars I've never seen before
Shining like million diamonds
Will they shine for evermore
As the soul is drifting from me
The story's end, a tale to tell
I will not sink into the darkness
I have not bade my last farewell
I have not bade my last farewell
