Lyrics Fisherman's Dream - John Martyn

Fisherman's Dream

What happened to the fisherman’s dream
When they rowed their last boat down?
What happened to the dream of the fisherman
When they cast their last net 'round?
What happened to the fisherman’s love
When it drove him over the hill?
What happened to the fisherman’s dream?
Is the fisherman dreaming still?
Tell me, did it fade away?
Did it fade on down to the ocean?
Did it fade away?
Fade on down to the sea?
To the ocean and the sea
What happened to the fisherman’s love?
Was it nowhere to be found?
What happened to the love of the fisherman
When it drove him to the high, high ground?
What happened to the love of the fisherman
When they drove that last nail down?
What happened to the fisherman’s love
When they laid him in the ground?
Tell me, did it fade away?
Did it fade on down to the ocean?
Did it fade away?
Fade on down to the sea?
To the ocean and the sea
Tell me, did it fade away?
Did it fade on down to the ocean?
Did it fade away?
Fade on down to the sea?
To the ocean and the sea
