IRON MAIDEN - Ghost of The Navigator lyrics

rate me

I have sailed to many landsnow I make my final journey

On the bow I standwest is where I go

Through the night I ploughstill my heartcalculate and pray

As the compass swingsmy will is strongI will not be led astray

Mysteries of time clouds that hide the sun

But I knowbut I knowbut I know

I see the ghosts of navigators but they are lost

As they sail into the sunset they'll count the cost

As their skeletons accusing emerge from the sea

The sirens of the rocksthey beckon me

Take my heart and set it freecarried forward by the waves

Nowhere left to runnavigator's son

Chasing rainbows all my days

Where I go I do not knowI only know the place I've been

Dreams they come and goever shall be so

Nothing's real until you feel

I steer between the crashing rocksthe sirens call my name

Lash my hands onto the helmblood surging with the strain

I will not fail now as sunrise comes the darkness left behind

For eternity I follow on there is no other way

Mysteries of time clouds that hide the sun

But I knowI know

I see the ghosts of navigators but they are lost

As they sail into the sunset they'll count the cost

As their skeletons accusing emerge from the sea

The sirens of the rocksthey beckon me

Take my heart and set it freecarried forward by the waves

Nowhere left to runnavigator's son

Chasing rainbows all my days

Where I go I do not knowI only know the place I've been

Dreams they come and goever shall be so

Nothing's real until you feel

I see the ghosts of navigators but they are lost

As they sail into the sunset they'll count the cost

As their skeletons accusing emerge from the sea

The sirens of the rocksthey beckon me

Take my heart and set it freecarried forward by the waves

Nowhere left to runnavigator's son

Chasing rainbows all my days

Where I go I do not knowI only know the place I've been

Dreams they come and goever shall be so

Nothing's real until you feel
