The Last Ships

Well the last ships have left the shore I can't see your smile anymore When the wind hits in the dead of night I will dream that you're keeping right But we all must go alone Reaching out into the world Some will be there, some will be gone When the time comes we all must move on Now the horizon stretches out Like a child who's just learnt to shout His own name into the world Waiting for his mind to unfurl But we all must go alone Reaching out into the world Some will be there, some will be gone When the time comes we all must move on Sit and watch the tracks spread For miles across the land Worries couldn't find us there, hand in hand Back when we were young And before we all grew up And life found ways of pushing us aside Well the last songs are in the air And we've danced through moods foul and fair So we'll sing to the moonlit sky And hear ourselves in the tunes we let fly But we all must go alone Reaching out into the world Some will be there some, will be gone When the time comes we all must move on But we all must go alone Reaching out into the world Some will be there some, will be gone When the time comes we all must move on
