Under the towers down by the sea
This is the power the power of steam
Steam is the muscle inside the machine
The machine that will take you away from me
Or did this happen in my dream?
Rust can destroy what the men have built
As the snowflake drifts on the seagull’s wing
But nothing can turn back a ship that big
And nothing can make you forget what he did
They say the wound will close up
They say the blood will stop
But blood is only teardrops falling from your heart
I’m typing in my cabin
It’s a letter to your soul
But words are only letters acting out a role
I can still see the red dress that you wore
And the look on the face of the man on the shore
You were ripped from a book, you were torn from a page
You were borne and betrayed like castaways
I guess I drifted off and dreamed a thunderstorm
The lightning struck the sea until the sea was warm
We were tossed into the foam, we could see the lights of town
That’s when I opened up my arms and flew around
They say the wound will close up
They say the blood will stop
But blood is only teardrops falling from your heart
I’m typing in my cabin
I never said goodbye
But steam is only spirit rising to the sky
And blood is only teardrops falling from your heart
