The Whaler Lyrics - Thrice

My lover's arms 

Ooh they beg me to stay 

But I know the storms 

They will sweep me away 

My daughter's eyes 

They are two tiny seas 

Whose water will rise 

And then run down her cheeks 

"Father, where do you go 

So far out upon the sea? 

When are you coming home to me?"

"Darling, why do you leave 

As the north wind begins to blow? 

Will you be coming home to me?" 

The boat and the blade 

They are all that I know 

The sea calls my name 

And so I must go 

And while they still sleep 

I slip out through the door 

But how can I leave 

With my anchors ashore? 

"Father where do you go? 

It's farther than I can see 

Where are you coming home to me?"

"Darling why do you leave 

As the north wind begins to blow? 

Will you be coming home to me?" 

Ahh...
