Point of Know Return - Vanden Plas

I heard the men saying something

The captains tell they pay you well

And they say they need sailing men to

Show the way, and leave today

Was it you that said

«How long, how long?»

They say the sea turns so dark that

You know it’s time, you see the sign

They say the point Demons Guard is

An ocean grave, for all the brave

Was it you that said

«How long, how long

How long to the point of know return?»

Your father, he said he needs you

Your mother, she says she loves you

Your brothers, they echo your words:

«How far to the point of know return?»

«Well, how long?»

Today I found a message floating

In the sea from you to me

You wrote that when you could see it

You cried with fear, the Point was near

Was it you that said

«How long, how long

To the Point of Know Return?»
