Narrows - Said The Whale

Tide slack, a summer low

Sunlight catch the golden narrows

They’re rising on the flood

For the chartreuse and the blood red, this time

This time I know

And with all my heart left to faith

I cast my luck into the water and I pray

For all my scars and my intuition

To see me through this

I’ve never been fishing like this before, anyway

Now the summer run comes through the strait

And I cast my luck into the river and I wait

With all my years and my inspiration

To see me through with a little bit of patience this time

This time I know

La da da da da, da da, da da, da

La da da da da, da da, da da, da

Now the river runs, summer slow

Sunlight cast won’t catch the rainbow

Rising on the river bend

And with all of my hard luck to face

I cast my thoughts out onto the lake

With all my stars and my inner vision

To see me through

Won’t see me fishing like this anymore

And it gets hard to find the time for this now anymore, anyway

La da da da da, da da, da da, da

La da da da da, da da, da da, da

Here we are the sun

And the rain

In the the rain we go

We are all the same

We know

We know

At the start of it

Was a spark

In my hands

And my heart

Became the tight line

And the weight of it

The wait of it

And I’ve waited

Most of my life for this

And the be mine!

Oh, be mine

Oh, be mine

Tide slack

A summer low

Sunlight catch the golden narrows

Rising on the flood again
