Lyrics

he’s sitting in the same old chair
he made for his wife when they were young
and though she is no longer there,
at evening he still keeps it warm
on his push bike the wind goes past his ears
much louder than the rain on tin
up the hill at dusk to see the tide
climb higher as the sun falls in
a lady lives around the bay
who can reel out the name of any bird
feathers woven in her hat,
oh, she’s the one who taught us all to swim
early in the winter morning blue,
she would always be the first one to the water
wide awake with sand between the toes
is swimming how you learn to live alone?
the old man cycles round the bay,
some days just to catch the early morn
hoping he’ll see a lady there
walking to the water all alone
feathers woven in her hat,
she’ll greet any passing smile with laughter
but a greater hill keeps him going fast,
one lonely heart goes by another
somehow, he can’t forget the other…
