Terra Nova
Set sail to colder climes
Converted whaler we call Terra Nova
Terra Nova
Anchored off New Zealand's shore
Prepare for unknown hardships
As it gets colder
It gets colder
Snow sleds and harnessed hounds
Traverse the stormy seascapes in Terra Nova
In Terra Nova
Packed ice will grasp the hull and hold us there for weeks on end
Is it over
In Terra Nova?
We sail in darkness guided by the evening stars
As were sailing far
To the end of the world
I will write these words remember what I've seen
It's the memoirs of one man
A journey of discovery
Heroic deeds with raise the country from it's knees
They'll all feel our pain
Remember our names
We sail in darkness guided by the evening stars
As were sailing far
To the end of the world
Pure white cliff tops tower miles into the air
And highlight the frailties of life
A million years of snowfall packed into the ice
No place for man nor beast nor spirit to reside
Yet we sail on
Heading for the pole
Where victory will greet us
With open arms
Waves we command
Confidence reigns high
Where victory will greet us
With open arms
