I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas

Casting you my sweet light with abandonment and love

Counting the towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul

Chorus: With light in my head, you in my arms, wough!

Oh I know I will be loosened, from bonds that hold me fast

The ship that got shipwrecked at sea

The bravest man was Captain Brown

Some rushed here and some rushed there

But the Captain sat in the Captain's chair.

And he played his ukulele as the ship went down.
