Death-Defying

Ever since the world began (oo-ee)
Men have sailed to foreign lands (oo-ee)
And the fortunes that they've found (oo-ee)
Are now buried in the ground. (oo-ee)

Some would say the ocean roars (oo-ee)
As it stumbles to the shore (oo-ee)
But to me it only sings (oo-ee)
Of the sorrow that it brings. (oo-ee)

All my friends are dead
Or they're dying.
Empty laughter turns into crying.
It's death-defying.

Well, I barely learned to swim, (oo-ee)
Just enough to save my skin. (oo-ee)
Now I'll never sail alone, (oo-ee)
And my harbour is my home. (oo-ee)

All our friends are dead
Or they're dying,
And our laughter only turns into crying,
It's death-defying.
(Hay-hay-hay)
(Hay-aye)

If there's one thing that I've learned, (oo-ee)
It's the point of no return (oo-ee)
And if that's to be our fate (oo-ee)
Now's no time to hesitate. (oo-ee)

Now's no time to hesitate.
Now's no time to hesitate.
