Wild Harbors - The Ballad of Wallace and Jessie lyrics

Artist: Wild Harbors

album: Monument


A ship on the ocean was miles from the shore
They heard a great crash like an out of tune chord
The crew exchanged glances beneath the big April moon
The ship was going down and there was nothing they could do
The ship was going down and there was nothing they could do
Before any panic had a chance to set in
A man raised his bow and his old violin
He summoned up his courage
He summoned up the band
To hold fast 'til the end like a soldier's last stand
To hold fast 'til the end like a soldier's last stand
People rushed on by, still the band stood their ground
And let loose in the air a most beautiful sound
A song to raise your spirits
And keep away your fear
A song that you could walk upon the water when you hear
A song that you could walk upon the water when you hear
The symphony it swelled and none there could forget
How the melody was bound to their sorrow and regret
He poured himself out across cold, northern black
And he gave them a gift they could not give him back
He gave them a gift they could not give him back
In an orphanage in Scotland, beneath the same moon
Jessie woke from a dream of a ship and her crew
She cried, "Can't you hear it? The song on the waves?"
And with one final breath, Jessie drifted away
