( IRON MAIDEN )

I have sailed to many lands now

I make my final journey

On the bow I stand, west is were I go

Through the night I plough, still my heart

Calculate and pray

As the compass swings, my will is strong

I will not be led astray

Mysteries of the time, clouds that

hide the sun

But I know, I know

I see the ghost of navigators

But they are lost

As they sail into the sunset they'll

Count the cost

As their skeletons accusing

emerge from the sea

The sirens of the rocks,

They beckon me

Take my heart and set it free

Carried foward by the waves

Nowhere left to run, navigator's son

Chasing rainbows all my days

Were I go I do not know

I only know the place I've been

Dreams they come and go, ever

shall be so

Nothing's real until you see

I steer between the crashing rocks,

the sirens call my name

Lash my hands onto the helm,

blood surging with the strain

I will not fail now a sunrise comes

the darkenes left behind

For eternity I follow on there is no

other way

Mysteries of time, clouds that hide

the sun

But I know, I know

I see the ghost of navigators

But they are lost

As they sail into the sunset they'll

Count the cost

As their skeletons accusing

emerge from the sea

The sirens of the rocks,

They beckon me

Take my heart and set it free

Carried foward by the waves

Nowhere left to run, navigator's son

Chasing rainbows all my days

Were I go I do not know

I only know the place I've been

Dreams they come and go, ever

shall be so

Nothing's real until you see

I see the ghost of navigators

But they are lost

As they sail into the sunset they'll

Count the cost

As their skeletons accusing

emerge from the sea

The sirens of the rocks,

They beckon me

Take my heart and set it free

Carried foward by the waves

Nowhere left to run, navigator's son

Chasing rainbows all my days

Were I go I do not know

I only know the place I've been

Dreams they come and go, ever

shall be so

Nothing's real until you see
