1.	The Fisher (Part I) 15:40	lyrics
a: Set Sail (Instr.) b: North Sea Storms In the black and heavy rainfall Forcing heaven on it’s knees There where light and darkness battle A Hymn through sails sounds as it breathes Where trusses shake with fear Oak wood cracks as nature pounds And the sea pours out it’s guts Salving wrecks with battering sounds Those North Sea storms are pounding Keep you and me surrounded By a clear and crescent moon We’ll see each other soon With beard and muscle building dykes The iron waves experienced A fisher’s ship pierces the brows As the lighthouse steers her well c: The Breathing Ship The breathing ship it does not tolerate Be friendly if you ask It’s driven by manners Her colours woven in banners And tawny shingle But she knows how and why She solely steers the rudder Before the dawn catches her eye She knows about the water The breathing ship protects her children Bread from water she will give them d: Floating Wood (Instr.) e: Soul Of The Past Warm wet water Glistening on a tired and wrinkled face As the last Lot into Sodom established into wicked ways The fishermen all left here They’re missing and afraid The morals sharp were blunted Waters emptied by the rates The warmth no longer lingers We must stand on our own feet Into the wide and open And hope that one day we will meet The washing of the water wailing Has made us learn to think And only when the ship sinks We will know who learned to swim f: Thoughts Of Home (Instr.) g: The Harbour Here by the pier It seems a long, long time ago now Embrace the new The ancient heart has turned to stone now The here, it was Bring our sons, bring our daughters Shine on, shine on Let’s greet the day and face the morning From the harbour to the dykes From the dry land to the sea Here I’ll always will be free I feel my heart in every wave Here by the pier It seems a long, long time ago now Renew, renew The ancient heart has turned to stone now The here, it was Bring the fire, bring the water Shine on, shine on Let’s sing my sons, sing my daughters I see the water, stretch my hands and I get up I see the water
2.	Stormbound 03:07	lyrics	buy track
I wake up, hear the warning bell chimes like a song It echoes with the living And fades out like a drum If we can make it Till the rising sun Lightning strikes us with it’s bright wings Waves are on the run Bright and hazardous the journey Till the kingdom come I wake up in the moment Gulls drift high above To morning skies iv’e woken Calm has come to all If we can make it Till the rising sun
3.	The Cross 09:53	lyrics	buy track
Here by the harbour lies the old familiar road to home That I know And over the rooftops where the rainclouds meet the eye There raise the masts of boats And if you walk the cobbled stones of misty aisles and hollow moans You break the bones and wake the souls of ghosts The water is a mirror where your tears just can’t pierce through now You stare blind in the distance and you know the only way is go back, somehow And what you feel is dead and cold and nowhere light And blanked out Come back home Deep down under water there is a light In the deep and darkest water In the blackest of the night I stand with arms wide open Waiting for the brightest light Here I wandered blind and lonely Through the emty desolate vales I felt the fear and I embraced it But no one could ease the pain The waves and the waters The wind and the rain The bright constellations They all know my name My body here is broken I feel the whip upon my skin The battle I have chosen Is the answer to my sins
4.	The Fisher (Part II) 14:10	lyrics
a: Son Protect my son Where he may go Surrounded by the wind and breakers Named as a child by God, our hope And sealed to be a ship’s companion See the old sun, feel the old wave The heavens look upon him Protect my son My life, my faith And give a safe and gentle journey His shoulders broad and hands so rough To embrace me on that good day b: The Lighthouse A beacon in the night The giver of the light When we may go down You guide us through the reefs The bringer of belief Where hope may be found We’re saving it all for you, and so be brave We’re saving it all for you till the light fades And now we’re homeward bound Through waves of mighty sound We pray we’ll be safe Here in your warm embrace We give in to your grace Where souls can be saved We’re giving it all to you, and so be brave We’re giving it all to you till the light fades c: The Field There has to be an island in the emptiness I feel No sunlight through the storm clouds And the days and nights seem bleak Can something rise beyond horizons Or is the spell beyond our grace Only stones that rise from silence Where the dead just lie betrayed And the procession just moves onward Rolls slow between the slates The sorrow of the sailor The pain too deep to fade And the soil feeds on the salesman That sells a life beyond the grave Is this the last he’ll favour or are we promised something great
5.	Brand New 02:17	lyrics	buy track
Wintertime, wintertime Feel it in my bones All dressed up, all dressed up Nowhere left to go All this time all this time Trying so hard to give Borderline, borderline Forgetting to live Just make it all brand new And I’lI say that it’s fine with me The colours come through Strum along, strum along With the sadness of my song All messed up, all messed up Find where I belong
