We sail to the mother
Through the high and low
I got me a letter
Tells me what to do

Three mile down the current
We'll see her face
She'll sigh, look upon us
Take away our names

And, oh, we'll finally
See what we are worth
All that's real, all that is humble
Everything pure

We fail to recover
All within our souls
I found me another
Vision to renew

Deep light burns within
But we live in haze
Resign and relinquish
All that we have gained

And, oh, we'll finally see
What we are worth
All that's real, all that is humble
Everything pure
