Lyrics

 
What horizon
I could not fathom
Such a heavy hand
Your heart has grown cold
WIth fantasies broken
You are a sad and foolish man
 
Oh Tom WIlly don't you cry for me
I'm floating now on a wine dark sea
I care not that you murdered me
But how I fear for your babies three
 
Blind and jealous
you could not keep me
from another's bed
And now your family 
is hiding in shadows
far from the one who's really dead
 
Oh Tom WIlly don't you cry for me
I'm floating now on a wine dark sea
I care not that you murdered me
But how I fear for your babies three
 
All that moonlight
empty promise
of time well spent
And as you held me
under the water
I did not know what it meant
 
Oh Tom WIlly don't you cry for me
I'm floating now on a wine dark sea
I care not that you murdered me
But how I fear for your babies three
 
Earthbound sorrow
is your fortune
such a heavy cross
But all your hatred
has poisoned your reason
a domino game of loss
 
Oh Tom WIlly don't you cry for me
I'm floating now on a wine dark sea
I care not that you murdered me
But how I fear for your babies three
 
Cold and weeping
wrapped in failure
you're a lonely man
But please be careful
to spare all your children
from what you cannot understand
 
Oh Tom WIlly don't you cry for me
I'm floating now on a wine dark sea
I care not that you murdered me
But how I fear for your babies three
