On the stormy shores of Azeroth
A silhouette did stand
A brave and stalwart sailor
Who gave a helpin' hand
Without fail, on every whim
Which we did demand
He simply smiled and waved his hand
And sent us 'cross the land
Farewell to thee, Placeholder
Your ship has sailed to sea
We'll tip our hats and pray one day
To be as great as thee
Captain P, you'll never know the emptiness inside
As we sit ashore on Menethil, waitin' for a ride
Time did pass, until, one day
That silhouette did fade
Where once we found Placeholder
Only scattered winds remained
The stormy sea went silent
On that dark and dreary day
But come along, my friends
Let's raise a glass up for his name!
Farewell to thee, Placeholder
Your ship has sailed to sea
We'll tip our hats and pray one day
To be as great as thee
Captain P, you'll never know the emptiness inside
As we sit ashore on Menethil, waitin' for a ride
So when you find yourself lamenting
On that lonely pier
Watching as the ships come in
And dryin' off your tears
Believe in what he stood for
And I know that he’ll survive
Inside our hearts dear Placeholder
Will always be alive!
Farewell to thee, Placeholder
Your ship has sailed to sea
We'll tip our hats and pray one day
To be as great as thee
Captain P, you'll never know the emptiness inside
As we sit ashore on Menethil, waitin' for a ride
