We steered our ship to the sea of all tranquility The only sound our voices, as star-struck we fly Our hopes ever high That the songs we sing and the words we bring Should never die We set our sights on the sea of all tranquility Our pointless flight betraying now fallen we are (gods of old now broken and defaced) Compared to a star And the final reach to that barren beach
Is much too far Yesterday our songs of glory shone A dream of ages every one We sold our souls for senseless gain And brought our harvest home in vain (above the seven seas is one) Yesterday our songs of glory shone A dream of ages every one We sold our souls for senseless gain And brought our harvest home in vain
