I sailed on a ship of paper
And i sank in the deep of your eyes
I got lost in your graveyard
Now i dream on a bed of knives
I found the map to your maps
I lost the shores for you
And i'll never get back
Cause i'm a ghost ship on the blue
x2
Ba da, da da, da da, da da da da,
Ba da, da, da, da, da, da
Now i hold my poems
For ladies unknown
Until my hands go weak
Oh oh
I'll be
Oh oh
La la la la la,
La la la la la,
A ghost ship on the blue
The birds are in the sky
Land's been gone for days
All you left was time
To find a solid grave
Pirates never loved
The way that i do
You never said enough
To keep me next to you
Now i hold my poems
For ladies unknown
Until my hands go weak
Oh oh
I'll be
Oh oh
La la la la la,
La la la la la,
A ghost ship on the blue
