My sink overfloweth with love

 Like the sea and the sand

Like the river and the land

We go together hand in hand

Hold me forever, I'll be your man


Give over, the shoulder, leg of lamb

It's a lamb to the slaughter

Water on the lam

Water daughter never taught her

How to stay close at hand

She always ran off from the land


I'm a king of fishes, I'm a fisher of kings

I'm making wishes I don't how to begin

Leave me in the lake

Let me drown, I think it's a mistake

That I wear this crown

Will you hold my life in your hands?

It's like water through the holes

Like using a sieve to catch sand


I've been borrowed before

I've cut and run

I've bet it all on a ball

Or a roulette hand

Show me how to fall

Let me tear it all down

I can't hear your call

Now I'm a wanted man
