A shout, and all of history
And never really thought about
Probed in depth and forgot about

Intro
Verse
The latest spade to build a moat
A ship to mend and send afloat
And all the fishes in the sea
Around the sides of my country
Will follow ship to where she lies
And close in fruitless sleep her eyes
And disconnect and comfort me
Safe in the arms of my country
Chorus
Her water slips from high
And peels me where I lie
Solo (played by the sax on the CD, but on guitar also live)

Troop home to silent grots and caves
Troop home and mimic as you go
The mourning winding of the waves
Which to their dark abysses flow and
Chorus
Out her water that sweats from very up high
Peels me where I lie
