Transcript
00:00Well, I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas
00:24Far away from dry land and its bitter memories
00:31Casting out my sweet line with abandonment and love
00:39No ceiling pinned down on me except the starry skies above
00:46With light in my head, you in my arms
00:53Ooh-ooh-ooh
01:13Well, I wish I was a breaker man, huddling on a train
01:22Crashing through the heartland like a cannonball in the rain
01:29With the beating of the sleepers and the burning of the coals
01:37Towns flashing by me in a night that's full of soul
01:44With light in my head, you in my arms
01:51Ooh-ooh-ooh
02:15Ooh-ooh-ooh
02:28And tomorrow I will be loosened from the bonds that hold me fast
02:36Chains hung all around me will fall away fast
02:43And on that final fateful day, I will take you by the hand
02:51I will ride on that train, I will be your fisherman
02:58With light in my head, you in my arms
03:06Ooh-ooh-ooh
03:14Light in my head, you in my arms
03:22I will be that fisherman
03:26Light in my head, oh, you in my arms
03:33Ooh-ooh-ooh
03:43Ooh-ooh-ooh
04:13Ooh-ooh-ooh
04:44Kiss me, mother, kiss your darling
04:57Lay my head upon your breast
05:04Throw your loving arms all around me
05:13I am weary, please let me rest
05:20Seems like the light is slowly fading
05:28In brighter days we cannot show
05:37And I am standing, oh, by the river
05:44An angel's way to take me home
05:52So kiss me, mother, kiss your darling
06:00See the pain upon my brow
06:08While I'll soon be with, oh, the angels
06:16Fate has doomed my future now
06:23And through the years, you've always loved me
06:31In my life, you've tried to save
06:39But now I shall be in slumber sweetly
06:47In a deep and lonely grave
06:54So kiss me, mother, kiss your darling
07:02Lay my head upon your breast
07:10Throw your loving arms all around me
07:18I am weary, please let me rest
07:26I am weary, please let me rest
