Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm just a man, but I know that I'm damned
All the dead seem to know where I am
Till it began on the night of my birth
We'll be done in a turn of the Earth
[Verse 2]
Lie where I land, let my bones turn to sand
I was born on the lake, and I don't wanna leave
Every eye on the coast evermore
Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore
[Verse 3]
Under the waves and the earth of an age
Lie a thousand old northerners' graves
Deep in the night, when the moon's glowin' bright
They come rising up into the night
[Verse 4]
Die if I must, let my bones turn to dust
I'm the lord of the lake, and I don't want to leave here
All who sail off the coast evermore
Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore
[Verse 5]
I'm goin' away for a long time
I'm goin' away for a long time
[Verse 6]
Lie where I land, let my bones turn to sand
I was born on the lake, and I don't wanna leave
Every eye on the coast evermore
Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore
[Verse 7]
Die if I must, let my bones turn to dust
I'm the lord of the lake, and I don't want to leave here
All who sail off the coast evermore
Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore
[Verse 8]
I'm goin' away for a long time
