Phantom of the Night - Kayak

A ship is setting course to sea

She’s carried by the wind

A voyage unto mystery

Once harbour lights have dimmed

A valiant toy of the waves and the tide

Sails in the night

The sea has many tales to tell

Of all the sunken ships

But trident hearts conceal them well

Where man will have no grip

Laughing at legends the crew shows no fear

Though fate is near

The waves have taken what was theirs

Ships went down, but no one cares

So many sailors lay buried in the deep

They’ll no longer weep

Have mercy on me Don’t let the sea

Swallow my life

Swallow my life

They see the angry rollers that

Are reaching up so high

Her crew has gone, her sails are red

The phantomship still flies

On violent waves that are looming ahead

Omen of death

The harsh and unbelieving crew

Suddenly realized all was true

Just like the men who were buried in the deep

They started to weep

Have mercy on me Don’t let the sea

Swallow my life

Swallow my life

Swallow my life

Million anonymous were drowned

Taken down

Into the realm of Neptune

See how she weathers every gale

In full sail

Doomed were the ships that came in sight

Of the Phantom of the Night

Of the Phantom of the Night

Of the Phantom of the Night
