[ Featuring the Howlers ]
Things aren't the same and our lives have gone lame
You think that we're finally through
But don't say that's all until you recall
Those forgotten words that we once knew
Puzzled so long but no Sherlock Holmes
Around to provide us a clue
Be still as a bird until you've heard
Those forgotten words that we once knew
Strange as it seems in my matinee dreams
I'm sailing the red Spanish Main
A fight to the last, tied to the mast
Of the sinking ship bearing your name
Don't let me give up the ghost
After all that we've been through
Don't you admit defeat till you have recalled
Forgotten words that we once knew
Don't let me give up the ghost
After all that we've been through
Don't you admit defeat till you have recalled
Forgotten words that we once knew
So here we are stranded at last
Between the hope of the future and lies of the past
Forfeit it all and try and unmask
Forgotten words fading so fast
Forgotten words fading so fast
