lyrics

The captain called from the forward mast
I believe our hopes are fading fast
This thing was never meant to last
And he slipped over the side

Never let me go, never let me go
Let my life end and begin again
But never let me go

The cook went next, the deckhand too
The businessman in a cashmere suit
He took the cabin bird to boot
And the priest lay down and cried

Never let me go

Give your life, give your life, give your life for love
Give your life, give your life, give your life for love
Whatever trouble it brings
Look in the eyes of your lover and sing

Never let me go

The wreck of it was all around
How senseless does the silence sound?
Little pieces still run aground
In places far and wide

Never let me go
