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?" 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 said she loves you Your brothers, they echo the 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 to the point of know return?"
