Seth Lakeman - Crimson Dawn Lyrics

One fateful night,
Well i woke to hear that sound
Like a gunshot,
With both windows shaking loud.
Great lengthy cries that came racing through the sky,
From a fearsome wreck,
A great dagger stuck in her deck.

Crimson dawn,
My heart was torn,
A midnight rescue we were called upon,
A freedom fire with burning eyes,
A figure tangled up in turning tides

So i cut her free and find....

This floating town it'd broke up, run aground
When the call came out to put fair charlotte in
So we ploughed those waves
With a hundred left to save
In the fading light, well i held on strong and tight

Ill stay with you 'til the morning light
In the turning tide
Ill set you free

Sharp rocks we braved,
For the last hand i would save,
It was a beauty fair
With wild and tangled hair,
Thick rope entwined well i cut her free and find
That your fast embrace, well i held her face to face.

So i cut her free and find
In turning tides
So i cut her free and find
In turning tides
Ill stay with you 'til the morning light
Ill set you free

It was a fateful night when i woke to hear that sound
Like a gunshot, with both windows shaking loud.
