lyrics

THE NORTH SEA FISHERMAN

I am the North Sea Fisherman, salt water in my veins
Another night under the stars, out past the shipping lanes
I am the North Sea Fisherman, not in heaven not in hell
Out on the ocean, riding the swell

Oh oh oh the North Sea Fisherman
Oh oh oh the North Sea Fisherman

I see the town lights in the distance
But they won’t guide me home
I left that congregation, the albatross has flown
I had a wife I had a family, but I stayed away too long
Too many nights under the stars
When I got back they were gone

Oh oh oh the North Sea Fisherman
Oh oh oh the North Sea Fisherman
Oh oh oh the North Sea Fisherman
Oh oh oh oh

There are monsters past the headland
But I read from ancient maps
This North Sea fisherman is never coming back
There's a storm on the horizon, but it means nothing to me
Only love will kill you, and I’m already lost at sea

Constellations light the heavens, Andromeda knows my name
Sometimes the mermaids dance for me
Out past the shipping lanes

The years at sea have taken their toll
Bones picked clean, salt bleached white
Fishing nets, filled with regrets
But at least we’ve got the night
But at least we’ve got the night
But at least we’ve got the night
But at least we’ve got the night

I am the North Sea Fisherman, Salt water in my veins
Too many nights under the stars
will drive a man insane, will drive a man insane
Will drive a man insane
