The Wreck Of The Antoinette

Full fathom five
On the seabed she lies
The Antoinette

I sailed with the dawn
And the wind blew free
Cross the bright shining sea
And it filled the sails
Of my Antoinette

Goodbye home and the one I love
Pu my faith in the sky and the stars above
Cause there's nothing in this world I wouldn't bet
On my Antoinette.

She carries your name
And for you I'll try
To be strong or I'll die
And I'll find my grave
In the rolling wave

Ride on baby, don't you let me down
Ocean's big and you don't wanna see me drown
But a bitter rain begins to beat the deck
Of the Antoinette

See the rain come lashing
There's a sudden flash of lightning on the foam
Hold on, Antoinette
The ocean pounds in fury
On a man who fights against it all alone
Keep on, Antoinette
She goes down with a sigh
And with her hear that cry
Antoinette, Antoinette

Dawn breaks on the sea
And the long dark night
Now gives way to the light
And no trace remains
Of the Antoinette (Oh)

Deep she lies on the ocean floor
Far away from the girl who still waits by the shore
Does she know her love is buried in the wreck
Of the Antoinette (Oh)

Deep she lies, deep she lies
Antoinette, Antoinette
