letra de quiet as the grave - kimber's men
[verse 1]
i watch the sea break on the sand
a hollow in my heart
i view the harbor ’round the bay
lit by just the stars
where once the teeming fishing boats
rushed to dock their silver loads
it’s quiet as the grave
quiet as the grave
[verse 2]
the fishing fleet’s all ghost ships now
the ‘kindly light’ is gone
the ‘faithful lass’ and ‘wesley’ too
they’ve sailed through their last storm
the lucky ones are scr-pped and gone
the rest lie rotting and forlom
quiet as the gravе
quiet as the grave
[chorus]
thе years of fighting artic ice
the heaving seas, the sleepless nights
a thousand trips all spent in vain
they’ll never put to sea again
[verse 3]
the night is falling o’er the bar
it’s time to drink a quiet jar
and join with crewmates once again
to share the memories and the pain
the pub where once we spent our day
is somehow not the same these days
it’s quiet as the grave
quiet as the grave
[verse 4]
the island race has run its last
the fishing fleets are in the past
the bravest crews that ever sailed
lashed by storm and flogged by gale
gaze out from harbors ’round the coast
and dream of laden fishing boats
waiting for the grave
waiting for the grave
[chorus]
the years of fighting artic ice
the heaving seas, the sleepless nights
a thousand trips all spent in vain
they’ll never put to sea again
