[Verse 1]
There's you, you're sleeping over there
Whilst me I'm sitting here
With so much sea between us
I can't make it much more clear
[Pre-Chorus 1]
There'll be no time for crying
We won't make it more than six
I could change my plea to guilty
But I don't think it would stick
[Chorus 1]
Still those other ratings far too easy to despise
You've said so much in silence now I truly am disguised
[Mallet percussion interlude]
[Verse 2]
Let him who fears his heart alone
Stand up and make a speech
For him perhaps an emperor's throne
If he could only speak
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Far too few and far to follow
For shame I'll heed the cry
Be with me when I need a drink
Be with me when I die
There's you, you're sleeping over there
Whilst me I'm sitting here
With so much sea between us
I can't make it much more clear
[Pre-Chorus 1]
There'll be no time for crying
We won't make it more than six
I could change my plea to guilty
But I don't think it would stick
[Chorus 1]
Still those other ratings far too easy to despise
You've said so much in silence now I truly am disguised
[Mallet percussion interlude]
[Verse 2]
Let him who fears his heart alone
Stand up and make a speech
For him perhaps an emperor's throne
If he could only speak
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Far too few and far to follow
For shame I'll heed the cry
Be with me when I need a drink
Be with me when I die
