Intro        

VERSE 1
      
I was born under the stars,
                       
Never meant to journey far
           
From all the faces and the place
             
That I called home
       
And my father lived the same
                     
And his father before him
 
But now I see in my son's eyes
              
Something has changed
                             
And the smoke it has stopped rising
                       
From the chimney up the road
                                        
And the light no longer shines over the door
                  
Last year I lent a hand
                            
The haul the boats unto the land 
                                              
They've been lyin' there for nineteen months Or more
                                    
And I wonder will they lie there evermore

VERSE 2
       
Wasn't many years ago
                              
That the men 'round here would go
                                                   
Out in there skiffs and haul their traps out on the bay
         
And then shortly they'd return
                         
Loaded down from stem to stern
                                         
And we'd off the fish then stow the gear away
                     
Now the waters are as barren
                           
As the cliff that guard the cove 
                                         
And catch the north wind blowin' off the shore
                   
And I wonder how an ocean 
                       
Turns as lifeless as a stone
                                          
And I wonder can the sea revive once more
                                   
And I wonder will they lie there evermore

Solo
VERSE 3
       
Well I hear some people say
                     
We'd be better off to stay ashore
                                   
And train for jobs outside the fishery 
              
Now wouldn't I look like a fool? 
                      
To go traipsin' off to school
                                  
After forty years of livin' of the sea 
                      
Now my son he's barely twenty-one
                 
And handy at the trawl
                                   
For years he helped my fish the Labrador
                                             
Now he's movin' to Ontario before the first snowfall
                                            
Dad theirs nothin' left for me 'round here no more
                                   
And I wonder will I see his children born
                                    
And I wonder will they lie there evermore
