Cape Of Good Hope by The Tiger Lillies Lyrics

The wind is howling
On this summer's day
The Cape of Good Hope
Blows our lives away

The sea roars
The lightning flash
Our timbers are all smashed
The waters coming for us
With one last breath
Over us it does gush

And we're going under the waves
Gasp and gag to our graves
But now as my breathing does cease
I feel only peace

And the mermaids carry me
I feel only free
Now my soul floats on the sea
And the mermaids play with me
All is calm in the waves
King Neptune does us save
So each sailor in the sea
If you hear remember me

When the storm does not cease
Your fate it will be peace
Only peace
