valerie vigoda - toward elephant island كلمات الأغنية

[shackleton, spoken]
but don’t you understand, katherine? blind, relentless hope is what brings about miracles

[shackleton]
alright, my dear katherine, let’s go get those men
it is time for us both to be sailors again
it is i, ernest shackleton, here in command
and i promise, my darling, we’re gonna find land

[shackleton, spoken]
now, play your spark

[electric violin solo]

[shackleton]
okay
tally ho
we borrow a ship and sail off with brave hearts

[shackleton/kat]
on our way
here we go

[shackleton]
but nature keeps trying to tear us apart

[kat]
the ice is too thick to get through
and we’ll never save all twenty_two

[shackleton]
hang on
for god’s sake
with the storm worse than ever, scared out of our wits
how much more
can we take
till the wind and the pack ice will smash us to bits?

[kat]
never mind that you’re out on the edge of the earth
and it seems like you’ll never succeed
when you think that you’re down, fight for all that you’re worth
you’ll find that you have all the strength that you need

[shackleton]
it’s been one month

[kat]
and we have to get through

[shackleton]
it’s been two months

[kat]
and we have to get through

[shackleton]
it’s been three months

[kat]
and we have to get through

[shackleton]
it’s been four months

[kat]
can we really save all twenty_two?

[shackleton]
it keeps happening, happening
over and over
it’s madness to cling, but i cannot let go
i won’t let them down
let them die on the ground
on some desolate rock in the ice and the snow

[shackleton/kat]
the elements conspire against us
leaving us stranded, defenseless

[shackleton]
d_mn the fates!
d_mn the gods!
d_mn them all straight to h_ll for not giving a d_mn!
but guess what?
i’m still here!
take a look, mother nature, you’ll see who i am

i’m your own humble sailor who loves you the most
respects every mountain and ice_bitten coast
reveres your cold beauty and treats you with awe
but your bl__dy indifference is your fatal flaw

you inspire our courage and grace us with splendor
then torture our souls till we’re forced to surrender
you cruelly and callously crush all our ships
take the life from our bodies, the breath from our lips

it’s more than a human can bear
i’ll get the best of you yet, i swear!

bring an axe!
bring a knife!
if the ship cannot sail, i’ll dive into the sea!
if i save
just one life
i don’t care if i drown, let the waves set me free!

[kat]
your crewmen are counting on you
and we have to save all twenty_two

[kat (overlapping)]
never mind that you’re out on the edge of the earth
and it seems that you’ll never succeed
when you think that you’re down, fight for all that you’re worth
you’ll find that you have all the strength that you need

[shackleton (overlapping)]
bring an axe!
bring a knife!
if the ship cannot sail, i’ll dive into the sea!
if i save
just one life
i don’t care if i drown!

[kat, spoken]
ernest, look there! i think there’s a man on the beach _ alive

[shackleton, spoken]
where?

[kat, spoken]
oh my god!

[shackleton, spoken]
i can’t make out a thing

[kat, spoken]
see him wave, it looks as though_

[shackleton, spoken]
i can’t see what you’re pointing to

[kat]
one of your men has survived

[kat, spoken]
right there! it’s for real. i think there’s another man, look up and see!

[shackleton]
a mirage

[kat, spoken]
he’s alive! look, he moved! what’s the matter with you, come on!

[shackleton]
ah, spite of the sea gods, there’s too much fog to see through

[kat, spoken]
oh my god, there’s three

[shackleton, spoken]
what?

[kat]
from the hut
two more men crawling out
see them stumbling pell_mell to the shore

[shackleton]
can it be?

[kat]
number six, seven..

[shackleton]
it’s impossible

[kat, spoken]
ahoy there! your boss has returned for your rescue once more!

[shackleton]
but i look, and i look again
merciful god
my heart’s standing still in my chest

[shackleton, spoken]
i see two more alive on the rocks!

[kat, spoken]
eight and nine, and there’s ten_

[shackleton, spoken]
lord help me_

[kat, spoken]
eleven!

[kat]
twelve sailors not going home in a box

[shackleton, spoken]
my pride did not k!ll all my men…

[kat, spoken]
up there _ can you believe it?

[shackleton, spoken]
there’s my first mate! ahoy, old friend!

[kat, spoken]
thirteen!

[shackleton, spoken]
and our cook! my god, he’s alive!

[kat, spoken]
fourteen!

[shackleton, spoken]
is that our navigator? yes! he’s alive!

[kat, spoken]
fifteen!

[shackleton, spoken]
and three more_

[kat, spoken]
sixteen, seventeen, eighteen…

[shackleton/kat, spoken]
the banjo player!

[shackleton/kat]
nineteen
there’s our twentieth man
do i dare to keep hoping?
the chances are slim to none

[kat, spoken]
but look there_

[kat]
dragging himself on his hand and knees
do ya see him? twenty_one!

[shackleton]
dearest katherine?

[kat]
dearest ernest?

[shackleton]
could it be that they all might survive?

[kat, spoken]
unthinkable!

[shackleton, spoken]
ridiculous!

[kat, spoken]
yet there he is:

[kat]
limping, but clearly alive!

[shackleton]
twenty_two!

[kat]
they’re all there!
impossible, but true

[shackleton]
every last one of the men on my crew
they have tears

[shackleton/kat]
in their eyes
as they’re shouting to the skies

[kat]
that you have saved

[shackleton]
that we have saved

[shackleton/kat]
them all!
we saved them all
all twenty_two
we saved them all!
