This will be a last song this will be a last goodbye 
take care of yourself ev´rywhere and hold your head up high 
The moon is shining clearly and the stars are shining bright 
This will be a last song for tonight 

When I´m old and doddering and my race is almost run 
Will you ever think of me will you miss me when I´m gone 
Forget all pain and sorrow come and rest here by my side 
This will be a last song for tonight 

Last night I dreamed the waters came rushing to and fro 
th e siren gave a warning I watched my body go 
The sea began to rollin´ oh god I cannot land 
I hear a loud voice calling: Please save this drowing man
