lyrics

there’s a boy
there’s always a boy
and the sea
there’s a girl
there’s always a girl
dreams about the city
with a spear
with a net
on the sea
there’s the catch
there’s the loss
and the sea
oh he’s never going ashore
born on the water die on the water
oh she bends down to the floor
dives in the water dies in the water
on the deck
she does her job
and hates the sea
out in the waves
he takes a breath
smoke in his eyes
in the net
a man drowns
she hauls his weight
through a line
she takes in air
lungs on fire
oh he’s never going ashore
born on the water die on the water
oh she bends down to the floor
dives in the water dies in the water
sail until the sun sets
live on the water love on the water
anchored on an inlet
fight on the water cry on the water
there’s a bar near the docks
where she knows she can go
there’s a current to the south
he says there’s pearls on the shoal
there’s a tide coming in
there’s a change in the wind
what we want what we love it don’t always fit in
oh he’s never going ashore
lives on the water alone on the water
oh she looks out from the top floor
out at the water cries by the water oh he’s never going ashore
born on the water die on the water
oh she bends down to the floor
dives in the water dies in the water
live on the water
love on the water
fight on the water
dive in the water
born on the water
die on the water
