I have seen the writing on the fisherman's hand As he gazes through the summer To the ocean, flat as candle wax So many moons since he relaxed The evening chill is chiselled to the fractures in his face Yet still his accent's warm as morning pastry Needed by his lover every dawn he wakes discovering A simple life for her, for him I've seen the writing
And I tell you what boy` I've been the Letter Man And it ain't enough boy It ain't enough to understand
I have heard the silence of the horizontal view Now the sun sets him to dreaming of a sky he knew before The same old battered waves began, Behind his heart beats in the blue Between the words he does not say His name is written plain as midday simmers Slowly cries a prayer for He will take the life to make the island part of him again I have heard the silence
But I tell you what boy` I've been the Letter Man And it ain't enough boy It ain't enough to understand
