My boat sunk deep
A messy hull
And where it went
The body of a sailor
Fell starboard
Tripped and splash!
Falling beneath to the ocean floor
I tried to save you! I tried to save your life!
Way down below, you know what it was
I tried to save you! I tried to save your life!
I threw the rope out with not enough time
I saw your eyes through a bubbling cry
Your mother will be terrified!
Falling beneath to the ocean floor
I tried to save you! I tried to save your life!
Way down below, you know what it was
I tried to save you! I tried to save your life!
I couldn't save you! I couldn't save your life!
I couldn't save you! I couldn't save your life!
I tried!
