Ship to Nowhere Songtext
von Hemlock

Watch them leaving out across the water
Through the mist on a tide they are gone
The look in their eyes
The overhead crying of the seabirds
The memories they′ll hold tomorrow and forever
Until they return


Now the little drummer boy
He sits alone on the main deck
Never really knew why he'd come here
But the waves they roar
As they pound on the shore of the place he is leaving
No second thoughts now, boy
Just watch us fly out across the water
But don′t you feel kinda helpless and just a bit small
When you're faced with leavin' and you′re on your own?

Some regrets here on board the ship to nowhere
Sailing on as a bellows noise draws ever near
The fear in their eyes
Never disguise, no sense in trying
There′s no turning back now, boy
You're headed out on a ship, on a ship to nowhere
