Lyrics Ferries - Robyn Hitchcock

Ferries

The ferries and starry skies
The lanterns, the lack of light
Reminding you of everything you have
Still missing the pouring rain
But you won’t return again
You’re laden — there is nothing more to add
Did you see us by the window
Waiting for a sign?
We won’t rest until
We know that you are fine
Still missing the pouring rain
But you won’t return again
You’re laden — there is nothing more to add
It’s the final call
The last way back
The lights will go out anytime
And you still are out on your own
Did you see us by the window
Waiting for a sign?
We won’t rest until
We know that you are fine
The end of another day
It’s time to be on your way
And from the sea they blow the final note
Cause ferries are out tonight
But you cannot make it right
It’s been forever since you lost that boat
Did you see us by the window
Waiting for a sign?
We won’t rest until
We know that you are fine
