Lyrics
Thermos on the rail and the lamp gone low Two lines in the water, nowhere else to go The tide talks slow to the barnacled wood Four in the morning and it's feeling pretty good Nothing's biting, nothing's wrong The dark just hums its easy song Let the line go down, let the minutes drift The water keeps the time, it's a quiet gift No hurry on the pier, the night's not through Let the line go down, I'll be here with you An old man nods and he tips his cap Pours me some coffee, tells me nothing, that's that A buoy bell clinks on a far black swell We don't need to catch a thing to be well Nothing's biting, nothing's wrong The dark just hums its easy song Let the line go down, let the minutes drift The water keeps the time, it's a quiet gift No hurry on the pier, the night's not through Let the line go down, I'll be here with you A gull wakes up and tries out its voice The east gets a thread of grey, no noise Pull your collar up, there's room on the crate Dawn can take its time, we're happy to wait Let the line go down, let the minutes drift The water keeps the time, it's a quiet gift No hurry on the pier, the night's not through Let the line go down, I'll be here with you Let the line go down I'll be here with you
