[verse 1]
Leave now
Never to return or
Stay and face the dark
Day of grief
Disbelief
Weak and weary faces
Falling and they're gone but still remain
And tales are fading faster
Glory days are few and far between
In living memory the
[chorus 1]
Days have gone down in the west
And the cold wind and rain fill my chest
And I rest
They sailed across the Ocean
And it fills me with emotion
To imagine such devotion
Take their place
Sail the Ocean
For the ways of the world
Do not change by your choice believe
In a lie
You should sail out and see for yourself
[verse 2]
I've set
Sail for the horizon
Pale and golden red
Rising sun
I am gone
All that is returning

Days have gone down in the west
And the cold wind and rain fill my chest
And I rest
I wonder how we got there

Days have gone down in the west
And the cold wind and rain fill my chest
And I rest
Was need or greed the reason?
Was it tantamount to treason?
Was no worthy game in season?
In their days
What was needed?
[chorus 4]
And the ways of the world
Do not change by your choice believe
In a lie
You should sail out and see where you
Stand, I demand
That the moment you choose to believe
You deceive
And you're building your castles on sand |
