On Another Shore (Track 2) - Lyrics by Legendary Pink Dots


Lyrics
All these years I waited cos I knew that you'd return.  No stranger'shand has touched this temple.
One candle slowly burned for you. (
Were you waiting too?) For you...justfor you.I swear I heard you crying on that cruel uncanny breeze. I saw youcrawling down there on your bleeding hands and knees. Now crawl rightup to me, my captain. The good ship sails away forever...
That's theway it's meant to be.
The good ship sails away forever. Leave us be.
These were the gentle words she said, though I could not find her inmy head. I searched for little clues but all the lights were glowingred. And in the end I smiled politely, snatched my coat and fled.
From you.
Now I swear I hear her crying on the cruel uncanny breeze. I see hercrawling down there on her bleeding hands and knees. Come to me!
The good ship sails away forever. It was never meant to be.
