1
Down by the harbourside
2
A boat is fastened by a length of rope.
3
It was a perfect match,
4
Dreaming of escape,
5
Feeling almost detached.
6
Look beneath the waves -
7
The seabirds diving down into black water.
8
The morning bells begin,
9
Schoolchildren chant and spin.
10
A length of rope
11
Below a hanging tree,
12
Like cruel secrets some of us turn out to be.
13
Should our love increase,
14
We are all released like statues from marble.
15
While in a prison yard,
16
They're taking turns to guard
17
A length of rope.
18
Are you too weak to fight?
19
Picking up a thread and then stretching it tight.
20
Look beneath the waves -
21
The seabirds diving down into black water.
22
Still our love increased,
23
We are all released like statues from marble.
