Welcome to all, climb aboard To the biggest luxury that man has build Sail far away for a new horizon, everyone's invited All alone on the ocean they declined The warnings that they've got "Iceberg ahead, if you turn it's too late" But no one cared Over two thousand souls on this floating kingdom Reaching for newer skies and horizons Far away you hear them say Save our souls, come and take us away We are all alone Nobody hears when we're calling Terror on the middle sea Is this it, the voyage of our dreams? Twelve o'clock, Southampton Tenth of April nineteen hundred twelve All alone on the ocean for one week Until they'll reach their destination So many great expectations Oh so many questions heard "Is it true what they say?" Then we'll go down and pray For all their lives Over two thousand souls on this floating kingdom Reaching for newer skies and horizons Far away you hear them say Save our souls, come and take us away We are all alone Nobody hears when we're calling Terror on the middle sea Is this it, the voyage of our dreams? Then the night closes in and the only light Is the moon that shines on the sea Up ahead in the distance something Great and white appears to be Iceberg ahead, they tried to lean To starboard side in the night Our glorious kingdom, lost at sea forever Left for sea that shiny day, no one saw her again Carved in all our memories, we remember you Over two thousand souls on this floating kingdom Reaching for newer skies and horizons Far away you hear them say Save our souls, come and take us away We are all alone Nobody hears when we're calling Terror on the middle sea Over two thousand souls on this floating kingdom Reaching for newer skies and horizons Far away you hear them say Save our souls, come and take us away We are all alone Nobody hears when we're calling Terror on the middle sea Is this it, the voyage of our dreams?

I lie half awake, late at night I reach out to touch, feel you by my side And I reach, and I reach, but I never get to feel you Will I ever get to feel you again? Again? Just one more time, one more moment to take you in my arms One more chance, one more kiss, before I wake to find you gone One more time, before I have to face another day And my heart breaks again It's only a dream, but it's also real I don't want it to end, but I know it will So I pray, and I pray, every night I'm on my knees Begging for the chance to see you again, again Just one more time, one more moment to take you in my arms One more chance, one more kiss, before I wake to find you gone One more time, before I have to face another day And my heart breaks again One more time, before I have to face another day And my heart breaks again, again

Faded sky, faded tan, floorboard still full of sand Summer heat's droppin', closin' up shoppin' Lonely boardwalk empty rides, ghosts of lovers wave goodbye The carnival's cryin', birds all flyin', south I take a turn on your Mama's street wishin' I could catch a peek Of you on that front step, like "Boy are you here yet?" But I know the truth in the lonesome sound of the choked leaves when they hit the ground Summertime's dyin' birds all flyin', south Well it might be over you might be gone Might not miss me you might've moved on But my love will still be hangin' around When the birds fly south I'm Passin' Burke's and that neon sign I laugh about the punch you threw that night No you never did like her, but I never thought you'd fight her And if I close my eyes I can feel your kiss taste the salt drippin' off your lips But I'm brought back down to Earth by a breeze so cold it hurts Well it might be over you might be gone Might not miss me you might've moved on But my love will still be hangin' around When the birds fly south When winter sets in When springtime rolls back to summer again Well it might be over you might be gone Might not miss me you might've moved on But my love will still be hangin' around When the birds fly south

We was just kids, but she looked like a woman Everything she was, was everything I wanted We were both willin', but still a little guarded She smiled, I smiled, that's when it all started The two of us in the backseat Lights off on a backstreet I'd show her and then she'd show me Right there, right there in the backseat Yeah, in the backseat I'd flashed the headlights and she slipped out the back door Didn't have to say nothin', we knew what we were here for With every first kiss, I could feel her heart race I'd fumble with the buttons while she was touchin' my face And what to do next, she knew that I didn't know She'd smile and say "Boy make it up as you go" The two of us in the backseat Lights off on a backstreet I'd show her and then she'd show me Right there, right there in the backseat Yeah, in the backseat Sometimes I think about her, yeah sometimes I guess you never forget your first time The two of us in the backseat Lights off on a backstreet I'd show her and then she'd show me Right there, right there in the backseat Yeah, in the backseat
