Lover’s Wreck lyrics
A hundred days at sea
A retch away from misery
Rummies and rats and tarry jacks
My only family
The island of salvation
Is still a scream away
As the lungs of the night
Blow out the light
My heart kneels down to pray
Lord, why did you take her
She meant so much to me
Now I'm a wretched soul on a privateer
Drowning out at sea
I'm killing and I'm drinking
My blue heart to black
But I swear, oh, Lord
I'll never sin again
If you bring her back
Gypsy was a siren
Dripping with desire
Her moonless hair and skin so fair
As warm as frozen fire
She had the loyalty of a cat
Behind those pale green eyes
Through her cherry lips
The devil slipped a thousand lies
A clan of rogues and vagabonds
Occupied her head
That thieving band took her pale white hand
And stole her from my bed
And like a ghost ship in the night
She drifted out once more
To land upon the sand
Of another lover's shore
