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
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
