The Tiger Lillies - Cape Of Good Hope lyrics

The wind is howling on this summer's day The Cape of Good Hope blows our lives away The sea roars the lightning flash Our timbers are all smashed The waters coming for us With one last breath over us it does gush And we're going under the waves Gasp and gag to our graves But now as my breathing does cease I feel only peace And the mermaids carry me I feel only free Now my soul floats on the sea And the mermaids play with me All is calm in the waves King Neptune does us save So each sailor in the sea If you hear remember me When the storm does not cease Your fate it will be peace Only peace
