Oh, oh sweet sailor
Cast out in peril on the sea
With each and every twilight
I looked out and prayed for thee
The waves whisper I loved him
The waves they whisper true
For all of these miles of sailing
They never seem to return me to you
What gold and riches?
What of status and rank?
It's the moorhen's call I treasure
The beauty of a quiet riverbank
Hopeful every longing, for a changing in the tide
How to comfort dreamers, through this storm that never subsides
A town of thirteen cobles
No more than a thousand souls
But my heart was happy at anchor
Knowing full-well the home I had found
For he had her sweetest simile
And he had her gold hair
And he had my hazel tingled eyes girl
A testament some part of me was once fair
Hopeful ever longing for a changing in the tide
How to comfort dreamers through this storm where Perran died
For we whisper in such muted tones
Of futures of lost, of what could have grown
A fate as cold as the sea
You ask me with a quizzical glaze
Why I can't stand old photographs
You're as green as the maple in May
The great ships break their tether ropes
And all that's left is skin and bone
The ghosts under midsummer's eves
Through the howling wind of every storm
The sliver light of every dawn
The cracks run through each and every seam
Such was the song of the Blackbird in May
Such was the River's laughter
So much has left me my waters salt stained
Does this regret have and answer
Does this regret have an after
