The Waterboys The Waterboys - This Is The Sea Lyrics

These things you keep
you better throw them away
Turn your back
on your soulless days
Once you were tethered
now you are free
Once you were tethered
now you are free
That was the river
this is the sea

If you're feeling weary
maybe been alone too long
or else you've been suffering from
a few too many plans that have gone wrong
and you're trying to remember
how fine your life used to be
running around banging your drum
like it's nineteen-seventy-three
Well that was the river
this is the sea
