the asphodel lyrics
[verse 1]
there’s a ship that haunts the desert
of old tales its timbers hewn
ardent, swift it sails the meadows
‘neath the gaze of a ghostly moon

lead’n stormclouds in the distance
weight of memory bearing down
phantom crew amidst the rigging
voices raised in airy sound:

[chorus]
sing a song of swallowed moab
sing of all that went before
feel the tug, our blessed anchor
fortune bring us home once more

hold ye fast to the memories
hold fast to the love
hold fast to the stories we share
under the brutal sun above
under the sun above

[verse 2]
as the waves mount ever higher
and the journey’s just begun
from the h+llmouth to horizon
anxious eyes turn t’ward the sun
hear the bos’n call “five seven!”
and the helmsman “seven eight!”
sun is shining through the weather
home is calling, home awaits

[chorus]
sing a song of swallowed moab
sing of all that went before
feel the tug, our blessed anchor
fortune bring us home once more

hold ye fast to the memories
hold fast to the love
hold fast to the stories we share
under the brutal sun above
under the sun above

[verse 3]
errant souls may aimless wander
dusky dreams of distant lands
elsewhere let them stray no longer
‘ere the sun sets on the sands

wayward hearts so full of longing
vanished voices in the wind
may they find the place of crossing
guide them gentle home again
[chorus]
sing a song of swallowed moab
sing of all that went before
feel the tug, our blessed anchor
fortune bring us home once more

hold ye fast to the memories
hold fast to the love
hold fast to the stories we share
under the brutal sun above
under the sun above

under the brutal sun above
under the sun above
