My name is Donald Crowhurst I'm alive and well I lost radio signal in Pacific swells I've seen 30-foot waves, a blue whale I saw the end of the world open up its cells Got lost in the summer of '69 I led you all to believe that I was doing fine This isn't the way I wanted it to end I went to see the globe in gold vivid reds What have I got myself into? Why did it turn out this way? I hedged my bets on something bigger To climb the Everest of waves I knew exactly what I wanted to find And I fear I've been deceived It wasn't in the plan to lie to you all But become the first king of the sea My name is Donald Crowhurst I'm alive and well I lost radio signal in Pacific swells I've seen 30-foot waves, a blue whale I saw the end of the world open up its cells I got lost in the summer of '69 I led you all to believe that I was doing fine This isn't the way I wanted it to end I went to see the globe in gold and vivid reds I might have lost count But 243 days I've found That I've been aimlessly drifting apart From where should I be and where did I start? And why did this end? How is this real? Why is this happening to me? I didn't get your RSVP When I crowned myself the first king of the sea My name is Donald Crowhurst This might be it I never even left the Atlantic I've been lying for months I've been struggling to cope I saw the end of the world And I think I broke I got lost in the summer of '69 I led you all to believe that I was doing fine This isn't the way I wanted it to end I went to see the globe in gold and vivid reds I went to see the globe in gold and vivid reds
