Les paroles de la chanson
« In all my dreams i drown (the devil's carnival) »
Jessica Lowndes

The ship, it swayed
Heave-ho, heave ho
On the dark and stormy blue
And I held tight to the captain’s might
As he pulled up his trews

‘You haven’t slept’
Heave-ho, he said
‘In many suns and moons’
‘Oh, I will sleep when we reach shore
And pray we get there soon’

He said, ‘Now hush, love
Here’s your gown
There’s the bed
Lanterns down’
But I don’t want to go to sleep
In all my dreams I drown

The captain howled
Heave-ho, heave-ho
And tied me up with sheets
‘A storm is brewing in the South,
It’s time you go to sleep’

His berth, it rocked
Heave-ho, heave-ho
The ocean gnashed and moaned
Like Jonah, we’ll be swallowed whole
And spat back teeth and bones

He said, ‘Now hush, love
Here’s your gown
There’s the bed
Lanterns down’
But I don’t want to go to sleep
In all my dreams I drown

‘Captain, Captain
I will do your chores
I will warm your cot at night
And mop your cabin floors
Scold me, hold me
I’ll be yours to keep
The only thing I beg of you
Don’t make me go to sleep’

The sky, it flashed
Heave-ho, heave-ho
His pillow dulled the brink
The curtains ran between my legs
As we began to sink

I closed my eyes
Heave-ho, heave-ho
As the ship was rent and felled
Eddies in the water headed
To the mouth of Hell

‘Hush, now, hush, love
Here’s your gown
There’s the bed
Lanterns down’
I’m begging you, please wake me up
In all my dreams I.....
