1. Let me off of this boat
   I'm sick of this ride
   the world is heading ever southward
         Emi
   and I can't stay in here
   
2. And you're lying awake
   away on your side
   the feeling comes in waves and burns us
   and I don't wanna die
   
3. From your slippery hands
   to the line of your throat
   the fever now consumes us both
   in a fire now we will go

R: Santa Maria
                       Emi
   why did you have to go 
         C
   Santa Maria
   stop
   one day we will know

4. In a bowing of heads and a passing of hands
   and all we thought they would understand
      Emi
   is lost and they won't know
   
5. And what have we left
   it's all that we got
   there is no x to mark our spot
   what's past is done and gone

R: Santa Maria
   why did you have to burn
   Santa Maria
                    G
   one day you will learn
