Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Under the dog star sail
Over the reefs of moonshine
Under the skies of fall
North-northwest, the Stones of Faroe
[Verse 2]
Under the Arctic fire
Over the seas of silence
Hauling on frozen ropes
For all my days remaining
But would north be true?
[Verse 3]
All colours bleed to red
Asleep on the ocean's bed
Drifting on empty seas
For all my days remaining
Would north be true?
[Chorus]
Why should I?
Why should I cry for you?
[Verse 4]
Dark angels follow me
Over a godless sea
Mountains of endless falling
For all my days remaining
What would be true?
[Verse 5]
Sometimes I see your face
The stars seem to lose their place
Why must I think of you?
Why must I?
Why should I?
[Chorus]
Why should I cry for you?
Why would you want me to?
What would it mean to say?
"I loved you in my fashion"
What would be true?
Why should I?
Why should I cry?
Why should I cry?
