procol harum - wreck of the hesperus lyrics

Loading...

[piano intro]

[verse 1]
we’ll hoist a hand, becalmed upon a troubled sea
“make haste to your funeral,” cries the valkyrie
we’ll hoist a hand or drown amidst this stormy sea
“here lies a coffin,” cries the cemetery, it calls to me

[chorus 1]
and all for nothing quite in vain was hope forever tossed
no thoughts explained, no moments gained, all hope forever lost
one moment’s sp-ce, one moment’s final fall from grace
burnt by fire, blind in sight, lost in ire

[orchestral instrumental 1]

[verse 2]
we’ll hoist a hand, becalmed upon a troubled sea
i fear a mighty wave is threatening me
we’ll hoist a hand, or drown amidst this stormy sea
“come follow after,” cry the humble, “you will surely see”

[chorus 2]
but still for nothing quite in vain was hope forever tossed
no moments gained, no thoughts explained, all hope forever lost
one moment’s sp-ce, one moment’s final fall from grace
burnt by fire, blind in sight, lost in ire

[guitar solo]

[orchestral instrumental 2]
