[Verse: soulful hook, emotional swell]
The delicate white sands feel soft and warm beneath your feet
As you go wading through the shallow shoals
I step on broken seashells, razor sharp and cutting deep
The shards become embedded in my soles
A playful westward zephyr teases at the rippling sails
As wind swept locks of hair caress your brow
I hear the songs of sirens echo through the howling gale
And overhead I see the dark storm clouds
The glowing warmth of sunshine, it illuminates your skin
As cresting emerald waves lap at the shore
I see a tidal wave of black obsidian rolling in
As daylight fades and nightfall comes once more

[Chorus: nostalgic tones, orchestral build, melodic hook]
Too-oo-night is our last night before you sail the ocean blue
And honey, please believe that I will always love you true
But come tomorrow, you shall be forever lost at sea
For I've seen it written in the stars, this is your destiny

[Verse: soulful hook, emotional swell, harmonies]
You gaze across the bay and see a beautiful horizon
A scene of pure tranquility and calm
Along the treelined shore I see one hundred heads of Typhon
A shadow play of silhouetted palms 
You see a golden beach adorned with rainbow parasols
As children build their castles in the sand
Yet I see only ghosts of sailors searching for their souls
Lost long ago, so far away from land
Your sun bronzed body climbs the ladder of your super yacht
You're feeling like a playboy millionaire 
I see you trapped beneath a capsized hull, your face distraught 
Thrashing frantically, gasping for air

[Chorus: nostalgic tones, hook]
Too-oo-night is our last night before you sail the ocean blue
And honey, please believe that I will always love you true
But come tomorrow, you shall be forever lost at sea
For I've seen it written in the stars, this is your destiny

[Melodic Interlude: Hawaiian Guitar Solo, Nostalgic Tones, Emotional Swell, Building Intensity]

[Outro: Nostalgic Tones, Climactic]
Too-oo-night, oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh
So much deeper than the ocean, is our love forever true
And if I asked you not to leave, I know you'd stay here with me
But your fate's not mine to change,
[Whisper] It is your destiny...

[Instrumental: Hawaiian Guitar Solo, Nostalgic Tones, Serene Atmosphere]

[Fade to silence]

[Chorus: nostalgic tones, stripped back] Ooh, too-night is our last night before you sail the ocean blue And honey, please believe that I will always love you true But come tomorrow, you shall be forever lost at sea For I've seen it written in the stars, this is your destiny [Verse: soulful hook, emotional swell] The delicate white sands feel soft and warm beneath your feet As you go wading through the shallow shoals I step on broken seashells, razor sharp and cutting deep The shards become embedded in my soles A playful westward zephyr teases at the rippling sails As wind swept locks of hair caress your brow I hear the songs of sirens echo through the howling gale And overhead I see the dark storm clouds The glowing warmth of sunshine, it illuminates your skin As cresting emerald waves lap at the shore I see a tidal wave of black obsidian rolling in As daylight fades and nightfall comes once more [Chorus: nostalgic tones, orchestral build, melodic hook] Too-oo-night is our last night before you sail the ocean blue And honey, please believe that I will always love you true But come tomorrow, you shall be forever lost at sea For I've seen it written in the stars, this is your destiny [Verse: soulful hook, emotional swell, harmonies] You gaze across the bay and see a beautiful horizon A scene of pure tranquility and calm Along the treelined shore I see one hundred heads of Typhon A shadow play of silhouetted palms You see a golden beach adorned with rainbow parasols As children build their castles in the sand Yet I see only ghosts of sailors searching for their souls Lost long ago, so far away from land Your sun bronzed body climbs the ladder of your super yacht You're feeling like a playboy millionaire I see you trapped beneath a capsized hull, your face distraught Thrashing frantically, gasping for air [Chorus: nostalgic tones, hook] Too-oo-night is our last night before you sail the ocean blue And honey, please believe that I will always love you true But come tomorrow, you shall be forever lost at sea For I've seen it written in the stars, this is your destiny [Melodic Interlude: Hawaiian Guitar Solo, Nostalgic Tones, Emotional Swell, Building Intensity] [Outro: Nostalgic Tones, Climactic] Too-oo-night, oo-oo-oo-oo-ooh So much deeper than the ocean, is our love forever true And if I asked you not to leave, I know you'd stay here with me But your fate's not mine to change, [Whisper] It is your destiny...
