Swim To The Star - Reb Fountain
The ship went down in cold water
The band played on
Women and children float away
Nearer my God to thee
The crew the black gang
And men who made her
Nameless gone all gone
Cry out to the world
We're going down
We're going down
We're going down
Dead sons lost lovers
Fathers and brothers gone
Belfast Southampton
Weeping weeping women
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh uh
Over and over and over
Ships of state ships of fools
Lower the lifeboats
The rich sail away
Nearer to God are they
No power no glory
Only hope remains
Swim to the star
Down down in dark water
The show goes on
Cry out to the stars
We're going down
We're going down
We're going down
The stars listen
The stars listen
And drift away
