lyrics

Wake Up It’s a new day
The snow is falling and the skies are grey
Cast off! Pray for wind

When this child was born
Did you have to mourn
For the one whose lost at the dark end of the world?
All the time was saved
From the cradle to the grave
Lost at sea and calling out to me

The Berlin wall came down
But in this northern town
Love has gone to ground
The sailor’s decree
If you are young you fall
And if you’re poor you can crawl on the floor
We’re exiles from the law of hegemony

Spirits groaning under gravestones
Their restless wanderings and their broken homes
Cast off! Pray for wind

And if you search the world
To find the one you love
You’ll always find me there at the dark end of the world
And when you come back home
Floating in the foam
Drifting in the gloam
Lost at sea

And when the walls come down
Stuck in this northern town
Love has gone to ground
The council decree
If you are young you fall
And if you’re poor you can crawl on the floor
We’re exiles from the law of hegemony

Happy birthday you
Happy birthday too
I’m in charge, bon voyage
See you in this tune
Rock ‘n’ roll, 8 bells toll
Ringing through the gloom
Sail away through the grey
Hope to see you soon
