My Bones Will Know The Sea

The time has come
I'm tired now
What's done is done
I'm to drown

How long since
Beneath the waves
I lost my ship?
I count the days

I'll never know
And never see
Will my friends
Still think of me?

Or with me
Were they sailing too?
And like me
Were they taken too soon?

I can't tell now
It's too dark to see
And the stinging cold
Has taken my speech

I pray I'm alone
On this, my last day
May the ones I love
Never feel this way

At last I shut my eyes
And sink
With my last spark of life
I think

Though my bones
Will know the sea
She's too great
To ever know me.
