[bodytext] => You said that this was goodbye my darling You said that you would be back someday Oh, have the tides taken you from me? Oh, my love you've been lost at sea I made a deal with Davy Jones To collect your bones and bring you home I'll hold my breath as I dive the depths Searching forever until my last breath I can't give up until I find your resting place I won't find peace until I see your face Like an anchor I sink without a touch of grace My lungs being clenched by Death's cold embrace A chorus of corpses welcomes my stay Beneath the waves for eternity they lay Betwixt land and sky there's no night or day No king of the ocean to whom I could pray At the bottom she laid, confirming my fears My lover rotted away by time's heartless gears Her amaranthine beauty no longer in sight But forever and always my heart will be thine We raced to the surface, escaping your grave But only a pile of bones was I able to save Your heart is long gone, it's been lost to the tides But I returned you home, my lover, my bride The tide has come to take me back under For a lifetime of servitude in Davy Jones' locker Oh, darling, a deal was made to save your soul I traded my own to bring you home One last time.
