We were young, and brave, and glorious
We were sailing wild and heavy seas
We were proud, and true, and powerful
We were riders of the salty breeze
No, any wayfare couldn't be more conquering
But every wayfare's coming to an end
[Refrain]
Here comes the fire
Time to say goodbye
Under a coal-black sun
Here comes the fire
Burning in my eyes
Under a coal-black sun
We got hooked, and stabbed, and guillotined
Surrounded up on Beacon Hill
We got whipped, entombed, and agonised
But they never got to break our will
No, any wayfare couldn't be more conquering
But every wayfare's coming to an end
[Refrain]
Far from here
In another world
In another unknown land beyond the sea
Far from here
We will meet again
We will meet again
[Refrain x2]
Under a coal-black sun
Under a coal-black sun
