Cape of Good Hope - The Tiger Lillies

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

When the storm does not cease

Your fate it will be peace

Only peace
