dagon - back to the sea lyrics
[verse 1]
i lie awake at night, bereft of all respite
as memory takes its flight to the days of yore
i was just a lad, the ship was all i had
and i was more than glad to leave my life ashore
crew: my closest friends
we sailed to the ocean’s ends
oh, but to see again the waves surrounding me
but the years have hasted, and my body wasted
from adventure tasted
life at sea
[pre+chorus]
the ocean beckons, and i must act
so before dеath calls, i’m going back
[chorus]
back to the sea, wherе my heart remains
back to the grave of my father, the blood in my veins
the salt in the air, i long for the taste
and the mist and the wind on my face
back to the sea
[verse 2]
many nights by the lantern lights, with a round of pints
we would tell tales of drifting isles, the triton’s daughter’s wiles
and of blackbeard’s guile
when the pirates sailed of cursed waters
of the ocean’s daughter
and of spain’s armada, who became as prey
now, my friends entombed, in earthly graves inhumed
and though my own death looms, i will not share their fate
[pre+chorus]
the ocean beckons, and i must act
so before death calls, i’m going back
[chorus]
back to the sea, where my heart remains
back to the grave of my father, the blood in my veins
the salt in the air, i long for the taste
and the mist and the wind on my face
back to the sea, where legends are born
and where in the wake of the storms, sailors’ widows do mourn
just one final time to gaze on the surf
‘fore my spirit departs from this earth
back to the sea
[bridge]

the oceans darken +++

[solo]
[chorus]
back to the sea, where my heart remains
back to the grave of my father, the blood in my veins
the salt in the air, i long for the taste
and the mist and the wind on my face
back to the sea, where legends are born
and where in the wake of the storms, sailors’ widows do mourn
just one final time to gaze on the surf
‘fore my spirit departs from this earth
back to the sea
i’m going back to the sea
back to the sea
back to the sea
