| [00:05.31] |
Tempest |
| [00:23.87] |
The pale moon rose in its glory |
| [00:27.81] |
Out on the Western town |
| [00:31.56] |
She told a sad, sad story |
| [00:35.50] |
Of the great ship that went down |
| [00:39.44] |
T'was the fourteenth day of April |
| [00:43.38] |
Over the waves she rode |
| [00:47.26] |
Sailing into tomorrow |
| [00:50.88] |
To a golden age foretold |
| [00:53.07] |
|
| [00:55.00] |
The night was black with starlight |
| [00:58.75] |
The seas were sharp and clear |
| [01:02.69] |
Moving through the shadows |
| [01:06.57] |
The promised hour was near |
| [01:10.75] |
Lights were holding steady |
| [01:14.44] |
Gliding over the foam |
| [01:18.01] |
All the lords and ladies |
| [01:22.20] |
Heading for their eternal home |
| [01:26.01] |
The chandeliers were swaying |
| [01:29.97] |
From the balustrades above |
| [01:33.78] |
The orchestra was playing |
| [01:37.60] |
Songs of faded love |
| [01:40.79] |
|
| [01:41.67] |
The watchman, he lay dreaming |
| [01:45.29] |
As the ballroom dancers twirled |
| [01:49.20] |
He dreamed the Titanic was sinking |
| [01:53.20] |
Into the underworld |
| [01:56.62] |
|
| [02:13.10] |
Leo took his sketchbook |
| [02:16.67] |
He was often so inclined |
| [02:18.73] |
|
| [02:20.55] |
He closed his eyes and painted |
| [02:24.30] |
The scenery in his mind |
| [02:28.68] |
Cupid struck his bosom |
| [02:32.24] |
And broke it with a snap |
| [02:36.12] |
The closest woman to him |
| [02:39.87] |
He fell into her lap |
| [02:43.93] |
He heard a loud commotion |
| [02:47.75] |
Something sounded wrong |
| [02:51.69] |
His inner spirit was saying |
| [02:55.32] |
That he couldn't stand here long |
| [02:59.45] |
He staggered to the quarterdeck |
| [03:03.58] |
No time now to sleep |
| [03:07.21] |
Water on the quarterdeck |
| [03:11.15] |
Already three foot deep |
| [03:15.21] |
Smokestack was leaning sideways |
| [03:18.59] |
Heavy feet began to pound |
| [03:22.80] |
He walked into the whirlwind |
| [03:26.74] |
Sky splitting all around |
| [03:30.55] |
The ship was going under |
| [03:34.37] |
The universe had opened wide |
| [03:38.37] |
The roll was called up yonder |
| [03:42.13] |
The angels turned aside |
| [03:46.37] |
Lights down in the hallway |
| [03:50.12] |
Flickering dim and dull |
| [03:54.07] |
Dead bodies already floating |
| [03:57.70] |
In the double bottom hull |
| [04:01.80] |
The engines then exploded |
| [04:05.56] |
Propellers they failed to start |
| [04:09.43] |
The boilers overloaded |
| [04:13.19] |
The ship's bow split apart |
| [04:17.56] |
Passengers were flying |
| [04:21.07] |
Backward, forward, far and fast |
| [04:24.88] |
They mumbled, fumbled, and tumbled |
| [04:28.63] |
Each one more weary than the last |
| [04:32.88] |
The veil was torn asunder |
| [04:36.64] |
'Tween the hours of twelve and one |
| [04:40.32] |
No change, no sudden wonder |
| [04:44.08] |
Could undo what had been done |
| [04:48.26] |
The watchman lay there dreaming |
| [04:52.08] |
At forty-five degrees |
| [04:56.08] |
He dreamed that the Titanic was sinking |
| [05:00.02] |
Dropping to her knees |
| [05:05.02] |
|
| [05:19.92] |
Wellington he was sleeping |
| [05:23.17] |
His bed began to slide |
| [05:27.23] |
His valiant heart was beating |
| [05:30.98] |
He pushed the tables aside |
| [05:35.48] |
Glass of shattered crystal |
| [05:38.92] |
Lay scattered roundabout |
| [05:42.80] |
He strapped on both his pistols |
| [05:46.62] |
How long could he hold out? |
| [05:50.62] |
His men and his companions |
| [05:54.50] |
Were nowhere to be seen |
| [05:58.31] |
In silence there he waited for |
| [06:02.19] |
Time and space to intervene |
| [06:06.25] |
The passageway was narrow |
| [06:09.82] |
There was blackness in the air |
| [06:13.70] |
He saw every kind of sorrow |
| [06:17.82] |
Heard voices everywhere |
| [06:19.07] |
|
| [06:21.79] |
Alarm bells were ringing |
| [06:25.42] |
To hold back the swelling tide |
| [06:29.73] |
Friends and lovers clinging |
| [06:33.11] |
To each other side by side |
| [06:37.61] |
Mothers and their daughters |
| [06:41.05] |
Descending down the stairs |
| [06:45.05] |
Jumped into the icy waters |
| [06:48.55] |
Love and pity sent their prayers |
| [06:52.87] |
The rich man, Mister Astor |
| [06:56.47] |
Kissed his darling wife |
| [07:00.53] |
He had no way of knowing |
| [07:04.28] |
It'd be the last trip of his life |
| [07:08.85] |
Calvin, Blake and Wilson |
| [07:12.66] |
Gambled in the dark |
| [07:16.23] |
Not one of them would ever live to |
| [07:19.79] |
Tell the tale on the disembark |
| [07:24.30] |
Brother rose up 'gainst brother |
| [07:27.80] |
In every circumstance |
| [07:31.55] |
They fought and slaughtered each other |
| [07:35.37] |
In a deadly dance |
| [07:39.56] |
They lowered down the lifeboats |
| [07:43.37] |
From the sinking wreck |
| [07:47.06] |
There were traitors, there were turncoats |
| [07:50.64] |
Broken backs and broken necks |
| [07:55.14] |
The bishop left his cabin |
| [07:58.70] |
To help others in need |
| [08:02.64] |
Turned his eyes up to the heavens |
| [08:06.60] |
Said, he poor are yours to fee |
| [08:11.23] |
Davey the brothel-keeper |
| [08:14.60] |
Came out dismissed his girls |
| [08:18.36] |
Saw the water getting deeper |
| [08:20.61] |
|
| [08:21.85] |
Saw the changing of his world. |
| [08:27.29] |
Jim Dandy smiled |
| [08:30.17] |
He never learned to swim |
| [08:33.73] |
Saw the little crippled child |
| [08:37.42] |
And he gave his seat to him |
| [08:41.86] |
He saw the starlight shining |
| [08:45.92] |
Streaming from the East |
| [08:49.67] |
Death was on the rampage |
| [08:53.36] |
But his heart was now at peace. |
| [08:57.43] |
They battened down the hatches |
| [09:00.93] |
But the hatches wouldn't hold |
| [09:05.18] |
They drowned upon the staircase |
| [09:09.00] |
Of brass and polished gold. |
| [09:13.31] |
Leo said to Cleo |
| [09:16.57] |
I think I'm going mad |
| [09:20.70] |
But he'd lost his mind already |
| [09:24.51] |
Whatever mind he had |
| [09:28.63] |
He tried to block the doorway |
| [09:32.38] |
To save all those from harm |
| [09:36.70] |
Blood from an open wound |
| [09:40.26] |
Pouring down his arm |
| [09:44.70] |
Petals fell from flowers |
| [09:48.30] |
Til all of them were gone |
| [09:51.80] |
In the long and dreadful hours |
| [09:55.68] |
The wizard's curse played on |
| [09:59.75] |
The host was pouring brandy |
| [10:03.50] |
He was going down slow |
| [10:07.43] |
He stayed right to the end and he |
| [10:11.43] |
Was the last to go |
| [10:15.31] |
There were many, many others |
| [10:18.94] |
Nameless here forever more |
| [10:22.75] |
They never sailed the ocean |
| [10:26.82] |
Or left their homes before |
| [10:30.88] |
The watchman, he lay dreaming |
| [10:34.63] |
The damage had been done |
| [10:38.45] |
He dreamed the Titanic was sinking |
| [10:42.45] |
And he tried to tell someone |
| [10:47.15] |
|
| [11:04.15] |
The captain, barely breathing |
| [11:07.91] |
Kneeling at the wheel |
| [11:11.78] |
Above him and beneath him |
| [11:15.40] |
Fifty thousand tons of steel |
| [11:19.34] |
He looked over at his compass |
| [11:23.10] |
And he gazed into its face |
| [11:26.97] |
Needle pointing downward |
| [11:31.10] |
He knew he lost the race |
| [11:34.79] |
In the dark illumination |
| [11:38.66] |
He remembered bygone years |
| [11:42.35] |
He read the Book of Revelation |
| [11:46.30] |
And he filled his cup with tears |
| [11:50.67] |
When the Reaper's task had ended |
| [11:54.17] |
Sixteen hundred had gone to rest |
| [11:58.11] |
The good, the bad, the rich, the poor |
| [12:02.30] |
The loveliest and the best |
| [12:06.18] |
They waited at the landing |
| [12:09.68] |
And they tried to understand |
| [12:13.68] |
But there is no understanding |
| [12:17.44] |
For the judgement of God's hand |
| [12:20.20] |
The news came over the wires |
| [12:25.51] |
And struck with deadly force |
| [12:29.69] |
Love had lost its fires |
| [12:33.13] |
All things had run their course |
| [12:37.51] |
The watchman he lay dreaming |
| [12:40.96] |
Of all things that can be |
| [12:45.01] |
He dreamed the Titanic was sinking |
| [12:48.70] |
Into the deep blue sea |
