Never So Free

[Verse 1]
Wind across the quayside
Grit in my eyes and fish in my nose
White as whalebone, wheeling seagulls cry

[Verse 2]
Outside the bar in the high street
Blind fingers spin an accordion reel
Shoes and sedan wheels grudgingly keeping time

[Verse 3]
Fishing boat stretched out at low tide
Dog and a black man work on the deck
Bright as a bottle, sunlight skips wave to wave

[Verse 4]
Part of a map of somewhere
Teases my foot like a haunting dream
Never so free, I'm lost in the seagulls' flight
Never so free, I'm lost in the seagulls' flight
