Time stands still Stands still Time stands still The sea stands still for us my love Our anchor dropped in the rising sun I hope still for your words to come All is fair in a war un-won I still stand, I still breathe While only salt and death surround me I long still for your arms my love Hold me close away from things I've done Waves crash the hull In morning's quiet calm The calm before the storm The break before the dawn Before the shelling starts Black clouds above Hang over our heads They bring a flash of death The cold reaper's hand tries to pull me in Lances spread off port aim to split our sides The run's fanning wake looks a mile wide As the blister breaks and the ballasts fill, the ship's bell is rung List and heel with ash cans in the distance; silence deafened Bled in, scuttled and lost Time stands still Stands still Time stands still Time stands still for us my love Our anchor dragged in the smoked out sun No hope still for your words to come All is fair in a war un-won I still stand, I still breathe While only salt and death surround me I long still for your arms my love
