Lyrics Never Seen the Sea - Gavin Clark

Never Seen the Sea

An iron sun sinks
Leaving this bay
Behind bridges of silence
Below saints
A creature of dry land
A gale around me
The son of a searcher
He’s never seen the sea
Nurseling beauty
How far can you crawl
God knows I love you
You are an original
I came without reason
So bitter, so free
You were born by the river
But you’ve never seen the sea
I stood at your tombstone
I felt alive
A vision between us
A sun in the sky
I weighed up your madness
In scales of degree
You lived your whole life
But you never saw the sea
You never saw the sea
