Fisherman's delight

I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight
Love is a super power
Like an endless sea
I will swim to you
If you will swim to me
I can drink your song
I´m drunken from your sound
If this is love then let me drown
Let me drown
What a perfect night
To forget your pain
And finally see the light
After forty nights of rain
Little boy blue come blow your horn
A melody yet to be born
I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight...
The fisherman´s delight
Once I was on the hill
Now I am in the hole
But there´s a hope that prances
In the footlights of my soul
In a sea of sadness
Find a drop of gladness
Just to fill my bowl
I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight...
The fisherman´s delight
Lovers fill the streets
And drag there leaden feet
Somehow they always seem to cry
Bombs and blessings
Everybody´s guessing
What will next fall from the sky
I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight...
The fisherman´s delight
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight
Love is a super power
Like an endless sea
I will swim to you
If you will swim to me
I can drink your song
I´m drunken from your sound
If this is love then let me drown
Let me drown
What a perfect night
To forget your pain
And finally see the light
After forty nights of rain
Little boy blue come blow your horn
A melody yet to be born
I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight...
The fisherman´s delight
Once I was on the hill
Now I am in the hole
But there´s a hope that prances
In the footlights of my soul
In a sea of sadness
Find a drop of gladness
Just to fill my bowl
I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight...
The fisherman´s delight
Lovers fill the streets
And drag there leaden feet
Somehow they always seem to cry
Bombs and blessings
Everybody´s guessing
What will next fall from the sky
I will lay beside you
On this long and lonely night
´cause the flood that drowns the sailor
Is the fisherman´s delight...
