Relationships To Ghostships
a tranquil sea two hearts combined two bands of gold on fingers entwined
a voyage of trust a crew of two started by many finished by few
a sacred oath to herald the start the perfect end till death do us part
the helmsman grins as you come aboard two anguished souls for his desperate hoard
so much in love so much to learn his time will come he'll wait his turn, a placid sea an easy ride the handsome groom the beautiful bride
temptation waits at every port a constant battle that must be fought
a love so strong begins to wain a cancer spreads no morphine can ease the pain
the helmsman extends a tariff in his bony hands the cost two broken hearts and two wedding bands
the ultimate price the passing of years from a shower of confetti to a shower of tears
