On The Wharf

作曲 : Holly Throsby

作词 : Holly Throsby

When it's old, when it's old

When it's begged and hollow and sold

When it's time, when it's time

When there's no sweet fish on my line

They don't bite, they don't bite

Not like my dreams in the night

Where I'd try and I'd try, but

I wouldn't know how to fight

I just call loud, and I call loud

When I'm bold, when I'm bold

I could skin, and scale and, you, hold

On the wharf, on the wharf

With my legs hanging over the water

They don't bite, they don't bite

Not like my dreams in the night

Where I'd try and I'd try, but

I wouldn't know how to fight

I just call loud, and I call loud

When I'm old, when I'm old

When I'm built upon and grown over

When I'm stopped like a clock

That's hands got slower and slower

I don't mind

I won't mind

Don't, no more dreams in the night

Where I'd try and I'd try, but

I wouldn't know how to fight

I just call loud, and I call loud

From the wharf

Ohoy, she knows

To the boat

Oh, there she blows
