The third verse is quite foreboding, with the singer despairing about the journey. Let’s look at vocabulary:
| travelling |
| oceans |
| sad |
| gloom |
Let’s listen to the first two lines:
| I am in despair, Travelling over the oceans |
The dark theme continues in the next two lines:
| The black ship is moving Sailing in sadness |
Once you are comfortable, we will put all the lines together:
| I am in despair, Travelling over the oceans, A black ship is moving, Sailing in sadness |
