(VERSE)  
C5                              F5           C5
Down in the street they're all singing and shouting  
        G5              A5      G5
Staying alive though the city is dead 
G5          C5          G5     C5
Hiding their shame behind hollow laughter 
      C5     F5      D5         G5
While you are crying alone on your bed 
C5                   F5      C5
Pity Cassandra that no one believed you 
         G5            A5            G5
But then again you were lost from the start 
G5         C5        F5      C5
Now we must suffer and sell our secrets 
F5       G5       A5     D5    G5      C5
Bargain, playing smart, aching in our hearts 
 
(Chorus)  
                  G5
Sorry Cassandra I misunderstood 
                    C5
Now the last day is dawning 
                      G5
Some of us wanted but none of us could 
                   C5
Listen to words of warning 
                      E5
But on the darkest of nights 
       A5          E5
Nobody knew how to fight 
                          A5
And we were caught in our sleep 
                  G5
Sorry Cassandra I didn't believe 
                   C5
You really had the power 
                 G5
I only saw it as dreams you would weave 
                C5
Until the final hour 
 
(VERSE)  
So in the morning your ship will be sailing 
Now that your father and sister are gone 
There is no reason for you to linger 
You're grieving deeply but still moving on 
You know the future is casting a shadow 
No one else sees it but you know you're fate 
Packing your bags, being slow and thorough 
Knowing, though you're late, that ship is sure to wait 
 
(Chorus) 
 
(VERSE)  
I watched the ship leaving harbour at sunrise 
Sails almost slack in the cool morning rain 
She stood on deck, just a tiny figure 
Rigid and restrained, blue eyes filled with pain 
 
(Chorus) 
 
I'm sorry Cassandra 
I'm sorry Cassandra
