playing rapunzel - the lady lyrics
[verse 1, marilisa:]
the white ship goes wand’ring upon the dark waves
in the summer it left from the sh0r-
many a husband and many a son
have departed with her once before
[chorus 1, mich:]
but the lady is faithful, she rides the bright sea
her bowing is graceful, full of dignity
she speeds ‘cross the water, the wind at her back
and the crew hopes she’ll carry them home
[verse 2, marilisa:]
the captain takes p-ssengers on in the night
from the new world they sail to the old
the gentleman smiles to the captain and crew
but the little girl’s gaze is ice cold
[chorus 2, both:]
the lady is faithful, she sails bravely on
though when daylight arrives, her new boarders are gone…
the captain shrugs carelessly, pocketing gold
that he’ll spend if he ever sees home
[bridge, both:]
dark down below
where no one dares go…
[verse 3, marilisa:]
the ship is far cleaner than ever before
[mich:] [? 2.27]
for the vermin have left her in peace
[? 2.30] upon her chaos-darkened mood
a strange fog has risen to blanket the deck
[? 2.35] faded [? 2.37]
and the crew catch a wasting disease
[? 2.40] confusion, peace
[chorus 3, marilisa:]
still the lady is faithful, the oceans she’ll tame
[mich:] [? 2.45]
both the dead and the living she carries the same
[? 2.52]
she speeds ‘cross the water, winds urging her on
and the crew knows she’ll never see home
[bridge, both:]
dark down below
where no one dares go…
[mich:]
ah-ah, ah…
ah-ah, ah…
ah-ah, ah…
ah-ah, ah…
ah, ah… ah, a-ah…
ah ah, ah… ah..
ah-ah, ah-ah oh
ah…
[verse 4, marilisa:]
the ghost ship floats gently to stop at a port
though the sails have been left to fly free
deep in the night something slips from the deck
and blends with the human debris
[chorus 4:]
but the lady stayed faithful, embracing her crew
though their days of fast living were certainly through…
and what they delivered, they never knew
as their ship came to rest far from home
[both:]
and the lady would never more roam…
