I'll Haunt You
On board ship the rumours ride
No one meets my eye
I've thrown your ring out on the tide
I pray my curses fly
To haunt you
Haunt your bed
Tap the windows you'll wake in dread
I pray that you'll love me instead
I'll haunt you, I'll haunt your bed
I've walked alone upon this deck
A thousand times or more
Half a year from my return
These cries fly back to shore
You promised me our love was strong
You said that you'd be true
Go tell yourself I'm long gone
'Cause here's what I will do
I'll haunt you
Haunt your bed
Tap the windows, wake in dread
I pray that you'll love me instead
I'll haunt you, I'll haunt your bed
I'll haunt you
Sleep in fear
Whisper secrets in your ear
A world away but I'll be near
I'll haunt you here
Fear me
Whenever you're sleeping
I will be watching over you
"Fear me..." repeats
A year at sea since your letter came
To shatter all my plans
You set me free, changed your name
I stretch out these cold hands
to haunt you, haunt your bed
tap the windows, wake in dread
I prayed that you'd love me instead
I'll haunt you, I'll haunt your bed
and I'll haunt you
Sleep in fear
Whisper secrets in your ear
A world away but I'll be near
I'll haunt you here
I'll haunt you, haunt your bed
Tap the windows, wake in dread
I prayed that you'd love me instead
I'll haunt you, I'll haunt your bed
I'll haunt you
"Fear me.." repeats
Staring at the dark with hungry eyes,
Moonlight flickered in the shadows cried,
Gold ring flashed and the howling stopped,
I called her name and the west wind dropped.
I called her name and the west wind dropped.
I push her on the arm with the silver cane,
Took her by the hand, I saw her pain,
My breath smelt like a burning house,
bitter cold words apon my mouth.

One fateful night,
well I woke to hear that sound
like a gunshot,
with both windows shaking loud.
Great lengthy cries that came racing through the sky,
from a fearsome wreck,
a great dagger stuck in her deck.
chorus
Crimson Dawn,
my heart was torn,
a midnight rescue we were called upon,
a freedom fire with burning eyes,
a figure tangled up in turning tides
so i cut her free and find....

Kind friends gather round
There's a dream that I had this last night
There's plenty of land, soil and sea
We won't have to struggle and fight
It's a poor man's heaven, well how about when
We won't have nothing to fear, no
With real feather beds to rest those heads
We'll all have one of our own
It's a poor man's heaven to be free
A poor man's heaven to believe
It's a poor mans vision up above

We left our sweethearts
And our wives along that pier
"Cheer up", they said
"You'll soon return in half a year"
So we sailed up north to reach the ice
We took full sails
Each boat was manned with guns
And rope to hunt that whale
We know, that we're fighting
In this frost on our own
And we'll see no sound
Or sight of our homes
And our lovers will be
Waiting there till spring
It's a ramble and a...
At fair Mount's Bay, on that Christmas week
Was such a raging storm, no man could speak
That lifeboat thundered through an angry sea
Was called Solomon Browne and her company
With courage, it was called
On our heroes brave and bold
With courage, it was cold
On board that night
Now the stricken coaster called the Union Star
Her maiden voyage, she never thought that far
With Captain Moreton and ...
