1
He's seen too much of life
2
And there's no going back
3
The loneliness calls him
4
And the edge which must be sharpened
5
He's losing it. And he knows.
6
But there's a fighter in his mind and his body's tough
7
The years have been unkind but kind enough
8
The smell of the earth
9
It's his favourite smell
10
But he's somehow compelled to the stinging salt hell
11
To the place where he hurts and he's scared
12
And there's no one to tell
13
And no one who doesn't listen
14
"You can take all the boys and the girls in the world
15
And I'll trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud
16
I've seen too much of life
17
So the sea is my wife and a sweet Ocean Cloud is a mistress I'm allowed
18
For now."
19
"You can take all the boys and the girls in the world
20
I wouldn't trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud
21
I've seen too much of life
22
So the sea is my wife and a sweet ocean cloud is a mistress I'm allowed
23
For now."
24
"Only me and the sea
25
We will do as we please."
26
He remembers the day he was marched to the front
27
By the physical knuckle head teacher of games
28
"Look lads" he declared, "This boy's a cream puff
29
No guts and no muscles
30
No spine and no stuffing"
31
The whole schoolroom sniggered
32
And silently thanked God it wasn't them..
33
But time is revenge. All the bullies grow weak
34
And must live with faithless women who despise them
35
I'll be in Barbados in a couple of weeks
36
With a rum on the table and yarns by the yard
37
A story to tell and a story to save
38
..unless she changes her mind
39
I'll trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud
40
I've seen to much of life so the sea is my wife
41
And the sweet ocean clouds will look down on my boat tonight
42
The wind changed
43
I felt it run beneath my ear
44
Like silk drawn across my neck
45
A dream of your legs
46
Defying gravity in love
47
The medium wave
48
Brought signals here from far away
49
Your tender voice riding on the sea spray
50
Something in the air
51
For those who know the signs
52
Something in the air
53
A storm..
54
When I was alive
55
When I was alive
56
Don't wanna remember
57
When I was alive
58
Watch me watch me
59
Paint this picture
60
Stretchin Hurtin Cursin
61
Watch me
62
Takin it Takin it Takin it Takin it....
63
Watch me. Watch me. God above..
64
Between two planets
65
In between the points of light
66
Between two distant shorelines
67
Here am I
68
Between two planets
69
In the black daylight of space
70
Between two heavenly bodies
71
The invisible man.
72
Ripping out the radio
73
I want to be alone
74
"You can take all the boys and the girls in the world
75
I wouldn't trade them this morning for my sweet Ocean Cloud
76
I've seen too much of life
77
So the sea is my wife and a sweet Ocean Cloud is a mistress I'm allowed
78
I've seen too much of life
79
So the sea is my wife
80
And the sweet ocean clouds will look down on my bones tonight..
