I am taking a ship north The harbor wharf Is full of people braced against the cold I made the decision To get as far away from you as possible But it hurts, it hurts, I'm bleeding The night channel Ah, the pain of the farewell snow The roar of the sea rattles my window In this rundown harbor inn The roof creaks and groans at night The more I drink, the more my sorrow Becomes icicles of longing It's hard, so hard, I'm miserable Down to my fingernails Ah, I'm crying from regret Snow dances in the channel This is a harbor town The sky and sea are leaden I can't let go of this love But if I can resolve to die, I can live Oh wind, oh waves, don't batter me The north channel Ah, the pain of the farewell journey
