lyrics

i am a fisherman
my calling as a child
when i heard the ocean tales
of life and death and miles
its salt is on my lips
and strewn throughout my hair
my blood runs deep with loneliness
but i had to chase you there

while i’m out at sea
my family on the shore
forgotten or just left behind
the rich became the poor
in rain or shine i cast
my skin is but a net
naked i came and so i’ll leave
i’ll leave you what i get

[the part of the song where the fisherman is changed forever]

the laughing of the waves
against my wooden frame
tells me there’s life there way down deep
and i’ll see you again
