A lady with a million fortunes, a lady with a thousand faces Who travels all around the ocean on a storm She lost herself along the ledges And vanished on the night in the foam A lady with a million decades, a lady with a thousand avengers Reaches at the floating sea ships like a flame She wheedled all along the fought front And vanished in the light of her fame The flying dutchman ship is just a myth Curses with sailing are lies miswritten whim A lady with a million facets, a lady with a thousand daydreams Echoes in the ears of seamen like a shell She searched for a treasure fortune And vanished in the depth under spell A lady with a million journeys, a lady with a thousand ghostmen Is blowing on around the centuries on a curse She lost herself among the tiny ships And vanished in the mind of a verse
