Out at daybreak to the sun
   Seas are drifting glass
   The tides were turning to the storm
   Winds were moving fast
   Women waiting at the harbour
   Silent stand around
   Weather storms another day
   For men the sea had found
  
   Fisherman were laying nets
   The barrels spread the bait
   The seagulls warning echoed round
   Winds that wouldn't wait
   People gathered at the harbour
   Waiting for the tide
   Eyes half closed against the spray
   And tears they cannot hide
  
   [Chorus:]
   Shadows falling at the harbour
   Women stand around
   Weather storms another way
   For men the sea had drowned
  
   Hulls were creaking crashing sails
   Rains were slating down
   The oilskins flapping, decks awash
   Slanting turning round
   Thunder roaring at the harbour
   Women drawn in fear
   Huddle up to wait the time
   And pray the sky will clear
  
   Howling winds and the raging waves
   Cracked upon the boats
   And torn from safety torn from life
   Men with little hope
   Ghostly echoes at the harbour
   Whispering of death
   Women weeping holding hands
   Of those they still have left
  
   [Chorus]
