The Great City Lyrics

This is a day for joyous song
Sing to God rejoicing!
In voices five hundred strong.
Each one gladly joins in.
Lovers, load your ships with things
Lovers, call the tide
Lovers, loathe the darkened things
But Lovers stay alive.
I'm afraid of darkened things
You can call the tide
If I never make it back
Does it mean I'm still alive?

You have your rest. Now take your leave.
The ocean's stomach swirls and spits out demons from the deep.
We have no more time!
We have no more time!
Let us celebrate the kindness of our hosts.

Behold the sea itself - a mammoth churning in the dark.
Reflecting all the light we shine - illuminating spark!
We are holding out!
We celebrate and shout!
We feast until the glow commands, "You must embark!"
Lovers, we rejoice for the great moment's coming soon
When dawn reveals its joyful eyes and calls us like a tune.
"I'm the gold of day.
Now you are on your way.
We bid our hosts! We bid our guests! Farewell, goodbye, adieu!"

We must leave their home
And call the sea our own.
