Lyrics:
I heard the men saying something
The captains tell they pay you well
And they say they need sailing men to
Show the way, and leave today
Was it you that said, "How long, how long?"
They say the sea turns so dark that
You know it's time, you see the sign
They say the point demons guard is
An ocean grave, for all the brave,
Was it you that said, "How long, how long,
How long to the point of know return?"
Your father, he said he needs you
Your mother, she says she loves you
Your brothers, they echo your words:
"How far to the point of know return?"
"Well, how long?"
Today I found a message floating
In the sea from you to me
It said that when you could see it
You cried with fear, the Point was near
Was it you that said, "How long, how long
To the Point of Know Return?"
Vanden Plas Members:
Andy Kuntz - Vocals

I have a feeling that vanden plas would have completley ripped Icarus (Borne on Wings of Steel) to peices.

Did you had your speakers on?
It's a fantastic cover a very nice homage to the original. But then again you're trolling so...
