A Seafarer's Knot lyrics

Song information

Artist: Fair To Midland
Album: Fables From A Mayfly: What I Tell You Three Times Is True

Lyrics

Lucky are the leaves of the clover
She's diggin for chemistry with the butcher's tools
Shifty are the eyes of the gambler
He's making his tricks and trades and a job well done

Through the motions and waving wishes to your confidence and eloquence

He's turning a-green from these envious glorious things
Applied ambitious faith that can keep us all safe
Invoking a blue that's meant for us too
What more amazing things that we'll turn into rain

Lucky is a deer in the headlights
Those two are as thick as thieves, not a penny more
Shaky are the hands of the gun shy
He'd rather give up the ghots than take five

Gather 'round, hold your glasses up high
Drink to love while we wait for high tide
Keep it short, keep it brief
You have my word
Gather round while we wait for high tide
