We've set our sails on sunrise -
Just like the scriptures say;
They have said they're building heaven, so it could
Be awkward, if we stay;
Chorus:
And the watchmen in their towers
Somehow have failed to see, how
We dance away,
We sail away
From their promises of Eden.
We hail Ye, Pretty Maidens;
And Ye, Weary Travellers - Hail!
Rest in peace, for there's no science that can unfold
The mysteries of our sails.
Chorus:
And while their wise men ponder
New ways to set us free -
We dance away,
We smile away
From their promises of Eden.
Some say this ship is crazy;
Some say this ship is iost.
But the Lady Fair, who's keeping us afloat,
Is still fairer than the most.
Chorus:
And while the full moon wanders
Above this ageless sea -
We dance away,
We smile away
From their promises of Eden.
