One Last Song

[Verse 1]

The ship was sinking, we were drinking, singing one last song, casting our gold into the ocean

You grabbed a bucket, started screaming, "Come on, come on, let's try and slow the downward motion"

Back in the kingdom we were kings and queens and oh so strong that God himself could not contain us

We never thought we'd be the shorter end of sword and gun

Now God himself could never save us

[Chorus]

Waves of silver, waves of gold are coming down to take me

Separate my body from my soul and Jesus either leaves or takes me

Hopes of heaven, fears of hell, and what's the chance I'll make it

And all my other plans have failed and I tried so hard to fake it

[Verse 2]

We started sinking, drinking water from the open sea, losing our bodies to the ocean

You grabbed my hand and started screaming, "Rescue me, come on, let's fight the downward motion"

Back in the kingdom, we were kings and queens and oh so free that God himself just had to show us

We never thought we'd be the colder side of land and sea, but he's the only one who knows us

[Chorus]

Waves of silver, waves of gold are coming down to take me

Separate my body from my soul and Jesus either leaves or takes me

Hopes of heaven, fears of hell, and what's the chance I'll make it

And all my other plans have failed and I tried so hard to fake it
