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 an ocean town
'Cause I’m out here all alone, my head in a rope
The price 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 past
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
