the magic lantern – the ship that washed away lyrics
the boat has left without me
all i can do is wave back
at faces of strangers i thought were my friends
and the love of my life upon deck
as the sun sets behind them
the scene becomes black
and i knew if i’d joined them
i’d never’ve come back
oh a young man with a little boys heart
begin at the ending you’ll never reach the start
and wash, wash away
the days bob by listless
in still summer heat
a small town just marking out time
till’ the radio crackles with news out at sea
the fair lusitania has drowned
as the clocks all fall silent
the sun makes no sound
and i start to feel seasick
here on solid ground
if i could start over again
i’d go with my love and i’d sink with my friends
and wash, wash away
wash, wash away
these crazy forces unleashed in a blink
the salt water stinging my eyes
blinding the world to the sadness contained
in the hull of that ship and my heart
the terror that followed
they couldn’t have known
and apart from the moon
well they died all alone
there was no band to play them goodnight
and just the sound of the waves in the morning light
and wash, wash away
wash, wash away…..
