Come before I sail away
Come before the tide today
Come before the oceans fill with fear
Yeah, come before
I'm heading on a fishing ship
Seaward for a little bit
Leaving every thing I knew before
I'm leaving shore
Come before I sail away
Come before the tide today
Come before the oceans fill with fear
Yeah, come before
I'm setting my old ways behind
Leaving all these things of mine
Everything that's ever held me down
I'm leaving now
I'm leaving and not coming back
Setting course and hoisting sails high
Wind and sea will be my friends
Leaving everything until the end
Come before I sail away
Come before the tide today
Come before the oceans fill with fear
Yeah, come before I sail away
Come before the tide today
Come before the oceans fill with fear
Yeah, come before
If mornin' comes and you're still not here
And waves for miles are all that's near
I'm picking up and I'm setting down the moor'
I'm leaving shore
So, come before I sail away
Please, come before the tide today
Come before the oceans fill with fear
Yeah, come before
