Lyrics

On February 14th, 1866, the Dutch ship Anstrous was lost at sea
And was wiped off the British Royal Register of Shipping
There were no survivors

Sheriff, I lost the ship in the Baltic Sea
I'm on an iceberg, running free
Sitting, filing this berg to the shape of a ship
Sailing my way back to your lips
One passing ship gave word that
You had moved out of your flat
I know the vicar loved you more than me

Tell him to pray that I won't melt away
And I'll see your face one day

Odessa
How strong am I?
Odessa
How time goes by

Treasure, you know the neighbours that live next door
They haven't got their dog anymore
Funny, snowing around in the North Atlantic
Can't get away from the sea anymore
I just can't understand why you just moved to Finland
You love that vicar more than words can say

Tell him to pray that I won't melt away
'Til I see your face again

Odessa
How strong am I?
Odessa
How time goes by
Odessa
How time goes by
