Crazy Water

On a bench, on the beach just before the sun had gone

I tried to reach you, plain faced and falling fast

You looked so vacant like an empty shell

Whose life had passed upon the ocean

Before light shook the sky

Down by the docks I saw the masts unfolding

Don't turn away, please understand, it's a life and a living

And a way to keep the wolves away

From hungry hands, from hungry hands

Crazy water takes my fishing boat on Monday morning

Dangerous dreaming

If we all believe in the things you believe you're seeing

Oh, we'd never drop our nets in the crazy water, crazy water

Tangled lives, lonely wives

Shoreline widows pray for the souls of missing whalers

Endless nights on an endless sea where nothing lives between us

Just the breakers on the ocean

Separating you and me, ooh, separating you and me

Crazy water takes my fishing boat on Monday morning

Dangerous dreaming

If we all believe in the things you believe you're seeing

No, we'd never drop our nets in the crazy water, crazy water

Crazy water takes my fishing boat on Monday morning

Dangerous dreaming

If we all believe in the things you believe you're seeing

And we'd never drop our nets in the crazy water, crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

Crazy water

In the crazy, crazy water

In the crazy, crazy, crazy water

Crazy, oh, crazy, crazy water

Crazy, crazy, crazy water
