And Now We Sing

And now we'll sing of drowning things

No wondering what might have been

Upon that ship we played the popular songs

Some sang along, now all that's gone

Thrown below the raging tide

We hoped to rest but were denied

So now we haunt the oceanside

And live this pale eternal life

And now you're here and so we'll pass the time

With secret songs and phantom wine

And now it seems so long ago

When once we lived but didn't know

That every life is quite a show

With answered prayers and tales of woe
