Good Will Hunting movie - Fisherman's Blues lyrics

rate me

Song by The Waterboys<br /><br>

I wish I was a fisherman<br>

tumblin' on the seas<br>

far away from dry land<br>

and it's bitter memories<br>

castin' out my sweet line<br>

with abandonment and love<br>

no ceiling bearin' down on me<br>

save the starry sky above<br>

with light in my head<br>

with you in my arms... <br>

i wish i was the brakeman<br>

on a hurtlin fevered train<br>

crashin head long into the heartland<br>

like a cannon in the rain<br>

with the feelin of the sleepers<br>

and the burnin of the coal<br>

countin the towns flashin by<br>

and a night that's full of soul<br>

with light in my head<br>

with you in my arms...<br>

<br>

And I know I will be loosened<br>

from the bonds that hold me fast<br>

and the chains all around me<br>

will fall away at last<br>

and on that grand and fateful day<br>

I will take thee in my hand<br>

I will ride on a train<br>

I will be the fisherman<br>

With light in my head<br>

You in my arms...<br>

<br>

Light in my head<br>

You in my arms...<br>

<br>

Light in my head<br>

You...<br>

<br>

With light in my head<br>

You in my arms...<br>

<br>
