The Ghost On the Shore

I'm just a man but I know that I'm damned All the dead seem to know where I am Till it began on the night of my birth We'll be done in a turn of the earth Lie where I land let my bones turn to sand I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave Every eye on the coast ever more Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore Under the waves and the earth of an age Lie a thousand old northerners graves Deep in the night when the moon's glowing bright They come rising up into the night Die if I must let my bones turn to dust I'm the Lord of the lake and I don't want to leave All who sail off the coast ever more Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore I'm goin' away for a long time I'm goin' away for a long time Lie where I land let my bones turn to sand I was born on the lake and I don't want to leave Every eye on the coast ever more Will remember the sight of the ghost on the shore Die if I must let my bones turn to dust I'm the lord of the lake and I don't want to leave All who sail off the coast ever more Will remember the tale of the ghost on the shore I'm goin' away for a long time
