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.
(chorus)
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
(chorus)
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.
(chorus)
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.
