about

Dramatic seascape paintings depicting brave fishermen battling with life and death on the storm seas inspired this song.

lyrics

Raging storm rolling over the ocean.
Bitter winds bring peril to the sea.
Boats are crashed on the rocks too late for warning.
Dark dream.

Fishing boats are no longer able.
There are holes in the hull and in the seams.
Men will cling to whatever will hold them.
Dark dream.

We are women who wait by the shoreline.
We have lost many good men and true.
We are holding our children all the closer.
Calling over the blue.

There are fish in the nets all a plenty.
They are tied up and no longer free.
Oh to cry out unheard in the danger.
Dark dream.

All we have is passing away.
All we have is gone
