I ain't ever gonna see the sea
Never gonna see the sea
I ain't ever gonna see the sea
Never gonna see the shipwreck trees, the cold salt breeze
Awash with scent and sound of a ocean town
'Cause I'm out here all alone, my head in a rope
The prince I'm told I paid 'cause I shot him down
Bleached white bones out here all alone
Died on the rope, the rope
As you rode from town
I ain't ever gonna see the sea
Never gonna see the sea
I ain't ever gonna see the sea
Never gonna see waves on a beach
But a desert so vast with sand to fill an endless hourglass
To watch life slip pass
Bleached white bones died on the rope
Picked clean by the crows from a grave
So shallow it was just a stone
I ain't ever gonna see the sea
Never gonna see the sea
I ain't ever gonna see the sea
Never gonna see the morning light
Through the bottom of a glass
In a tavern on the wharf
Of an ocean town
Of your town
I ain't ever gonna see the sea
