Odessa [City On The Black Sea] (2008 Remastered Stereo Album Version) - Bee Gees

Fourteenth of February, eighteen ninety-nine,

The British ship Veronica was lost without a sign.

Baa baa black sheep, you haven't any wool.

Captain Richardson left himself a lonely wife in Hull.

Cherub, I lost a ship in the Baltic sea

I'm on an iceberg running free

Sitting, filing this berg to the shape of a ship

Sailing my way back to your lips

One passing ship gave word that

You have moved out of your old flat

You love the Vicar more then words can say

Tell him to pray that I won't melt away

And I'll see your face again

Odessa,

How strong am I?

Odessa,

How time goes by.

Treasure, you know the neighbours that live next door

They haven't got their dog anymore

Freezing, sailing around in the North Atlantic

Can't seem to leave the sea anymore

I just can't understand why you just moved to Finland

You love that Vicar more then words can say

Ask him to pray that I won't melt away

And I'll see your face again

Odessa

How strong am I?

Odessa

How time goes by.
