Not Forgotten

from Youth by New Pope

lyrics

We are ships before the breeze
dying of thirst and riddled with disease
I thought I could feel a change in the wind
I hope you still feel me on your skin

the only escape from this ship is sleep
the only sleep to be had is through drink
so I drink to your health, drink til I'm sore
and dream of a drier death on shore

last night as I lay sleeping
my mind being bent on wandering
dreamt we were sitting by the Corrib
thought I could smell the perfume in your blood

but darling, we're still young
and I think we're fine
and the lessons of our youth
will come back in time
and darling, darling you
won't forget the lessons of your youth

not forgotten
oh no no
