Lucifer's Friend - Burning Ships lyrics

To think that I once called you friend The changes that you put me through And now it seems a change of plan Is all that I could do for you Though your thoughts are on the ebbing tide And you'll whisper at another strangers side Remember I'm the one who brought you your lady Leave your burning ships to die Maybe you'll wonder in your time And see the flame of might land The treasures of a thousand kings Lay burned in the drifting sand But you will go on your way Out of sight with nothing to say Remember I'm the one who brought you your lady Leave your burning ships to die
