lyrics

The Sinking of S.S. Friendship
 

Me and my friend John, we stayed passed the curtain call
Bingin’ on just another couple tens of shots.
The friendship vessel we stood on had been adrift for quite a bit
And as the whisky level rose, the boat done sank, we sank with it.   

Deixa que a aurora se demore noutro lado, 
Que a manhã não venha perturbar o manso céu estrelado, 
Que a noite por aqui teimou.. Deu que falar. 
Bebeu demais, deixou o sonho a hidratar. 
Conta-me mais, remexe as águas mata a sede 
De inventar rios onde o coração sossegue. 
Que o tempo vai emudecer este lugar. 
Que o tempo é água de correr, desaparecer, sumir no mar…
