Ghost in The Fog
I’ve seen it all a rise and fall now???
Fishin’ stocks are gone
It’s a different way of life but we’ll go on
We’ve faced the icy winds and cold out on the northern sea
Where the cod stocks made a livin’ once for me
And I remember years ago when men they made their daily catch
The cod tongues from the heads of fish we’d snatch
For a buck a pound we’d all go down close by the waters edge
And we’d wait for skulls to fall down from the ledge
But if I stare out long enough over the mist upon the bay
I can still see men in the morning sail away
I believe I see a vision in my dream from on this log
Rise from the seas like ghosts out in the fog
But time moves on our lives they’ve changed
Some friends we’ll see no more
As we boarded up the windows and the doors
And we stare once more at an empty shore
Where caplin use to race
And we leave for good the tears roll down our face
But if I stare out long enough over the mist upon the bay
I can still see men in the morning sail away
And I believe I see a vision in my dream from on this log
Rise from the seas like ghosts out in the fog
But the years they drift behind us
And the dreams we’d had are gone
And we realize it’s time now to move on
Like an ember from the chimney of a wood stove time it flies
And it fades away like stars up in the sky
And if I stare out long enough over the mist upon the bay
I can still see men in the morning sail away
And I believe I see a vision in my dream from on this log
Rise from the seas like ghosts out in the fog
But if I stare out long enough over the mist upon the bay
I can still see men in the morning sail away
And I believe I see a vision in my dream from on this log
Rise from the seas like ghosts out in the fog
They rise from the seas like ghosts out in the
