lyrics

Come all ye faithful, bitter watchers of the shore,
Sending all your hopes down, down to the ocean floor.

Sickness settles in your skin, it poisons like a bee sting,
Your cries falling on deaf eyes, the water promises but never tries.

And redemption, just a boat ride away.
And when you watch the water, telling stories of me,
I’m lost at sea.

Oh home fires burn, and hope for a doubtful return,
The moon tells the tide not to turn, and the heart refuses to learn.

And redemption, just a boat ride away.
And when you watch the water, telling stories of me,
I’m lost at sea.

Oh will I see, those merciful seas, bring you back to me.

And redemption, just a boat ride away.
And when you watch the water, telling stories of me,
I’m lost at sea.
