Lyrics for Odessa (City On The Black Sea) - Demo

On February 14th, 1866, the Dutch ship Anstrous was lost at sea And was wiped off the British Royal Register of Shipping There were no survivors Sheriff, I lost the ship in the Baltic Sea I'm on an iceberg, running free Sitting, filing this berg to the shape of a ship Sailing my way back to your lips One passing ship gave word that You had moved out of your flat I know the vicar loved you more than me Tell him to pray that I won't melt away And I'll see your face one day Odessa How strong am I? Odessa How time goes by Treasure, you know the neighbours that live next door They haven't got their dog anymore Funny, snowing around in the North Atlantic Can't get away from the sea anymore I just can't understand why you just moved to Finland You love that vicar more than words can say Tell him to pray that I won't melt away 'Til I see your face again Odessa How strong am I? Odessa How time goes by Odessa How time goes by
