There’s one of the great maritime mysteries It’s the story of a ship in our dark history Fire, collision, repaired and renamed She sailed to her final journey’s end Ship found adrift on December fourth No body’s there; the crew is gone Vanished in the night She was gone from this world Out of sight Oh, across an ocean full of dreams You shall not ever sail again Sail away to a stranger manner of d**h Carry on, carry on Never to be found Embraced and taken by the ocean’s breath Mary Celeste Swallowed in the mist of the night Your fortune ever died Dozens of tale’s been put forth since then The crew and the captain, what’s happened to them? Abducted or k**ed, no one ever knows Grapevine goes on, but no one knows Vanished in the night She was gone from this world Out of sight Oh, across an ocean full of dreams You shall not ever sail again Sail away to a stranger manner of d**h Carry on, carry on Never to be found Embraced and taken by the ocean’s breath Mary Celeste Swallowed in the mist of the night Your fortune died The story has grown like many tales ‘Cause all those people have gone away Mary Celeste had a shadowy past We will never know what happened at last Sail away to a stranger manner of d**h Carry on, carry on Never to be found Kissed by the ocean Mary Celeste Swallowed in the mist of the night Your fortune died Under the wide and starry sky Dig the grave and let me lie Glad did I live and gladly die And I laid me down with a will to die Sail away, never sail away Carry on, carry one Mary Celeste Vanished in the night Out of sight, all across An ocean full of dreams
