I wish I was a fisherman Tumblin' on the seas Far away from dry land And it's bitter memories Casting out my sweet line With abandonment and love No ceiling bearin' down on me Save the starry sky above A light in my head You in my arms Woohoo! A light in my head You in my arms Woohoo! I wish I was the brakeman On a hurtlin' fevered train Crashing headlong into the heartland Like a cannon in the rain With the beating of the sleepers And the burnin' of the coal Crashing headlong into the heartland On a night that's full of soul A light in my head You in my arms Woohoo! Light in my head You in my arms Woohoo! Well I know I will be loosened From bonds that hold me fast The chains all around me Gonna fall away at last And on that fine and fateful day I will take thee in my arms I will ride on the train I will be the fisherman With light in my head You in my arms Woohoo! Light in my head You in my arms Woohoo!
