The Mighty Regis - Celtic Storm lyrics

Black clouds come rolling, weather is charging like a nightmare Fear turns to panic, and there's no safe place to hide Givin' no fair warning, caught up in this riptide Shallow breath now you're drowning, rocks and monster waves collide (Chorus) Thunder shakes the ground, lighting snapping through the heavens Hail, wind and water, a dark army they surround Celtic storm is upon us, demon gusts deadly dancing Batten down them hatches, pray for morning's early rise Churning foam port and starboard, mast's moans heighten terror First mate screaming orders, they're swallowed by the howls Down below sailors huddle, silent mutters to absent angels Hope disappears like moonlight, the galley echoes dooming growls (Chorus) Calm falls like a ghost, the brine settles a scolded child Topside to see the stars, the hereafter's knowing smile Swabbies cry out in triumph, believe clearing conquered chaos Long to see a harbor, land loving for a while The depths cradle, now peaceful, but can't fight the eerie feeling Sails begin to flap, something wicked on it's way Mist and fog in the crows nest, last prayers all but given Rally to your feet, boys, the devil's come back to play From the stern returns the fury, the eye closes to the struggle The bows men now overboard, this clipper pays at such a cost Five more salties go a-missing, taking too much unholy water Can't feel the deck below them, 58 souls now are lost Disappear below the surface, faint cries slip away forever On down to Captain Jones, they're committed to the deep The gaels cackle to the cliffs, Celtic storm whips wild with its anger Makes the ocean lunge and dive, while forever the haunted sleep
