Lyrics
Signs of Life
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
At length did cross an albatross
Through the fog it came
As if it had been a Christian soul
We hailed it in God's name
It ate the food it ne'er had eat
And 'round and 'round it flew
The ice did split with a thunder fit
The helmsman steered us through
And a good south wind sprang up behind
The albatross did follow
And everyday for food or play
Came to the mariners' hollow
