With the grace of God
And the gift of peace,,
The strain of timbers
Beneath my feet.
Beneath my feet.
As I sail alone
These uncharted seas
One woman's love
Could set me free.
Could set me free.
A score of years
My hellish home
Aboard this ship
That dies of shame
No helmsman holds
The port of souls
Of life and death
To me denied.
In the pallid night
With no stars to guide
The trades of hope
Raged in my mind.
In the hallowed land
Of my fever dreams
Your fathom passion
Releases me
Releases me.
A score of years
My hellish home
Aboard this ship
That dies of shame
No helmsman holds
The port of souls
Of life and death
To me denied.
