Ghost Ship Lyrics

There's a ghost ship

Where the waves break on invisible oars

Brief adventure turned eternal

Bride and groom overboard

Spirits rose from the brine

Singing, what's yours is mine

He was promised to another

Overseas they could hide

Trusting no one but the sailors

With the knot they had tied

Far from shelter and forgiveness

No one came to their aid

When the storms hit they had nothing

But the vows they had made

Something old still so new

Sinking deep in the blue

So they borrowed a voice from the wind

And a body they took from the bones of the ship

And the fluttering flag on the sail

Is the tattered remains of her veil

Ooh, ooh

You who searches with your spyglass

Where the sea meets the sun

For a man who loved another

What more could you have done
