[00:01.62]Written by：Colin Meloy
[01:07.73]There's an island hidden in the sound
[01:15.3]Lapping currents lay your boat to ground
[01:22.91]Affix your barb and bayonet
[01:26.31]The curlews carve their arabesques
[01:30.28]And sorrow fills the silence all around
[01:37.96]You come and see
[01:46.03]There's a harbor lost within the reeds
[01:53.58]A jetty caught in over hanging trees
[02:01.18]Among the bones of cormorants
[02:04.64]No boot mark here nor fingerprints
[02:08.72]The rivers roll down to a soundless sea
[02:16.01]You come and see
[02:23.54001]Come and see
[02:42.38]The tides will come and go
[02:47.7]Witnessed by no waking eye
[02:51.38]Who rose like the wind
[02:57.13]Though we know for sure amidst this fading light
[03:05.96]We'll not go home again
[03:11.85]Come and see
[03:19.32]Come and see
[03:42.99]In the lowlands nestled in the heat
[03:50.68]A brier cradle rocks its babe to sleep
[03:58.12]It's contents watched by sycorax
[04:01.83]And patagon in paralax
[04:05.93]A foretold rumbling sounds below the deep
[04:13.37]Come and see
[04:20.99]Come and see
[04:39.83002]The tides will come and go witnessed by no waking eye
[04:48.8]Who rose like the wind
[04:54.38]Though we know for sure amidst this fading light
[05:03.15]We'll not go home again
[05:08.94]Come and see
[05:16.42]Come and see
[05:32.48]As I was rambled
[05:35.97]Down by the water
[05:39.52]I spied in sable
[05:43.29]The landlord's daughter
[05:58.89]Produced my pistol
[06:01.84]Then my saber
[06:05.49]To make no whistle
[06:09.01]Or thou will be murdered
[06:15.55]Lord
[06:38.95]She cursed she shivered
[06:42.24]She cried for mercy
[06:45.77]My gold and silver
[06:49.32]If thou will release me
[07:00.31]I'll take no gold miss
[07:03.64]I'll take no silver
[07:07.17]I'll take those sweet lips
[07:10.76]And I'll deliver
[07:14.49]Lord
[07:17.27]Lord
[08:33.62]I will dress your eyelids
[08:37.52]With dimes on your eyes
[08:41.28]Laying close to water
[08:45.24]Green your grave will rise
[08:49.6]Go to sleep now little ugly
[08:53.51]Go to sleep now you little fool
[08:57.5]Forty winking in the belfry
[09:01.19]You'll not feel the drowning
[09:04.95]You'll not feel the drowning
[09:15.09]Forget you once had sweethearts
[09:18.91]They've forgotten you
[09:22.88]Think you not on parents
[09:26.58]They've forgotten too
[09:30.99]Go to sleep now little ugly
[09:34.83]Go to sleep now you little fool
[09:38.94]Forty winking in the belfry
[09:42.59]You'll not feel the drowning
[09:46.27]You'll not feel the drowning
[10:12.43]Go to sleep now little ugly
[10:16.41]Go to sleep now you little fool
[10:20.41]Forty winking in the belfry
[10:24.12]You'll not feel the drowning
[10:27.85]You'll not feel the drowning
[10:36.78]Hear you now the captain
[10:40.22]Heed his sorrowed cry
[10:43.98]Weight upon your eyelids
[10:47.84]Is dimes laid on your eyes
