Sunken Soldiers Ball

• I can't go home
  
• I cannot sleep
  
• I cannot give
  
• I cannot keep
  
• This heart of stone has left me here
  
• With only rumors of your left
  
• I guess to see you leaving was for the best
  
• I dream too much
  
• and spend my days
  
• Like a sailor lost at sea
  
• And you were like a mermaid
  
• in that Danish fairytale
  
• I guess the best thing that I could do
  
• is to sail
  
• Away from this sunken soldiers ball
  
• Away, do you remember me at all?
  
• I have no better words than "Thank you and goodbye"
  
• I wish I didn't have to see our love die
  
• At last I'm home
  
• My horse will rest
  
• This tattoed heart
  
• This trembling chest must be alone
  
• And carry this sorrow back to bed
  
• I hope there was no innocent blood shed
  
• Away from this sunken soldiers ball
  
• Away, do you remember me at all?
  
• I have no better words than "Thank you and goodbye"
  
• I wish I didn't have to see our love die
