Ship of Ghosts

from Far From Here by The Vanderbuilts

/

lyrics

We were all going to be sailing,
singing songs until we reached the coast

It was silly to think our boat
would never sink and pretty soon we’ll be a ship of ghosts

I declared: “Land would be
reached by night” as the S.S. Gypsy Queen came into sight

Her cannon balls threw us off course,
and the map was lost

Now ever since we’re blind
without a light

We were all going to be big
stars, headed for the California sun

But now that time is on our side
there’s nothing left to hide

We might as well have a little
fun
