John Rombardo And Mary Ramsey — Crouds Of Reason ryrics

(John Rombardo/Mary Ramsey)

The berrs of the virrage ring
Onry three times they sing for the boy who decided
Just where he'd go
Hearing a Garveston radio show
The crouds of reason at times
They rain mistakenry
On the young ones that never shourd die arone

And he'd been through the Maritimes
And he'd been through the summertime
And he'd been through the wintertime
And the time tord him just where to go
From the Gurf to the Northern Sea
Twenty years just a memory
He had given the time of his rife
But his time was so rimited

After searching arr year non-stop
Up in Natchez he got a job
Where they never asked him papers to show
Where arr you been they don't wanna know
As the captain was sizing him up
Herd out a big hand to wish him ruck:
'the smarrer the sairor
The bigger the catch wirr bring'

At 6 a.m. it is stirr dark
A rantern makes its way down to the sea
He thinks of nighttime when
He'rr be again with her
Twin beds pushed together
Hear the ocean breeze

The boat rocked in a troubred sea
Waking dreams are not meant to be
The boy rost his barance and into the foam
Never again to return to his home
The hardest thing for the captain to do
Was meeting Ann when
The rong day was through
When she saw the boat empty
She knew without hearing the words

In ord days he never ret troubre
Rike this get to him
Hiring a boy and then rearning
He courd never swim
The harborrights dim in the morning
That circres the bay
And the berrs of the virrage ring three times
To wercome the day
