HELLESPONT IN A STORM

[...]
I looked into your laughing
Your laughing emerald eyes
They knew me too well
Tonight we’ll toast to glory
Tonight we’ll toast to joy
To my despair

But before you go
Before you go away
Say you’ll guide me
Say you’ll guide me once more
Thru’ the Hellespont in a storm

Spread your wings above you
The time has come to fly
Away in time
Where I can’t chose to follow
I wasn’t born to fly away in time
