stornoway - the fisherman lyrics

[verse 1]
awake before sunrise
sweep the woodsmoke from my eyes
jenny sings from the yellow wood
and i reply to an empty room
we grieve for the autumn
leaves that rain as i’m walking
through the dawn to the waterside
a hopeful cast, a line well+tied

[chorus]
when i’m gone, when i’m gone
when i’m gone i’ll be forgotten
flowing water, rising sun
hollow bones white as cotton

[verse 2]
she wades in the water
long havе i been courting her
searching under a silvеr sheet
a glimpse of gold, a missing beat
she breaks from the darkness
pure and bright in her gracefulness
she’s caught at last by the early light
a parting glance, then out of sight
[chorus]
when i’m gone, when i’m gone
when i’m gone i’ll be forgotten
flowing water, rising sun
hollow bones white as cotton
when i’m gone, when i’m gone
when i’m gone i’ll be forgotten
flowing water, rising sun
hollow bones white as cotton
when i’m gone, when i’m gone
when i’m gone i’ll be forgotten
flowing water, rising sun
hollow bones white as cotton
