lirik lagu fleet of hope (acoustic version) – indigo girls
[verse 1]
the fisherman comes up
puts his two poles in the sand
he stares out at the sea
just exactly like me
but i’ve got a book in my hand
we will have caught on to something by the end of the day
but mostly we think about the one that got away
[verse 2]
i’ve seen like a bird
what pleasures the surface can bring
i’ve lost my best craft
going foolishly back
to where the sirens sing
i’ve stared up at the place where the water meets thе sky
and though i stopped breathing i still beliеve i should try
maybe a boat in search of lost treasures would pass by
[chorus]
’cause the fleet of hope is so pretty
when she’s shining in the port
and the harbor clings to the jetty
for protection and support
out in the choppier waters the sharks swim and play
you’re all washed up when poseidon has his day
[verse 3]
i’ve walked through the desert (i was a girl)
climbed over mountains so high (i was a girl on my way)
through jungles and plains
i took buses and trains
airplanes across the sky
but none as seductive as ocean before me alone
and now i know why you layered your pockets with stones
[chorus]
’cause the fleet of hope is so pretty
when she’s shining in the port
and the harbor clings to the jetty
for protection and support
out in the choppier waters the sharks swim and play
you’re all washed up when poseidon has his day
[verse 4]
when i was a girl
all of my fancy took flight
and i had this dream
could outshine anything
even the darkest night
now i wait like a widow for someone to come back from sea
i’ve always known i was waiting for me
[chorus]
’cause the fleet of hope is so pretty (she’s so pretty)
when she’s shining in the port (she’s shining in the port)
and the harbor clings to the jetty (she’s so pretty)
for protection and support (she needs my support)
out in the choppier waters the sharks swim and play
you’re all washed up when poseidon has his day
