John Hackett, Nick Fletcher - That Ship Has Sailed Lyrics

Cast adrift on the vastness of the sea
On a ship that's rudderless just like you and me
We press on and on guided by the sun
Each can tell their tale
Listen now as one by one the crew deserts the ship
Men o' war guns ablaze prepare to draw your sword
Far below the ocean blue, hidden jewels and gold doubloons
Then you turn and smile at me, I see you gently swoon
That ship has sailed, that ship has sailed , that ship has sailed, our ship has sailed, our ship has sailed

Looking back on all that's gone before
Hoist your sail, set your jib, we're heading for a storm
Birds are flying high
It's getting hard to lie
And I can taste the spray
Save yourself while you can
And live to fight another day
All the things you promised me are dust and ashes now
Here we are cast adrift the rum is turning sour
Close your eyes, take my hand, we'll hang onto the bow.
That ship has sailed, that ship has sailed, that ship has sailed, that ship has sailed
