Harbour Song

from Imagined Lands by TA Walker

/

lyrics

We found a hamlet nestled by the seaside
Where more than fishing boats have come to hide
An ancient harbour where a candle always glows
We took a walk along the battered sea-wall
I held you close so that you wouldn’t fall
The way I haven’t always managed - well I know

We shared a prayer in the trawlers’ chapel
Our words were few - the Lord he knew them all
And no-one else understands me as you do
Did the careening world around us pause
Or only just the way it felt, because
It only mattered from the look I took from you

I thought I saw a lantern out at sea
A noctilucent cloud played tricks on me
You agreed it looked convincing from so far
And in the fading light of day
It wasn’t just the gulls that flew away
As we greeted every new-uncovered star
