Fill us with mist From a seaward assault And look to the distance Where the doves go to walk A safe house of looking glass Honoured in brine Taking in prisoners To make nothing of time Faint smells of catch For tomorrow's our feast Father's away On our fierce ocean deep It caters our weddings, Sundays, and Yule Until the mother forgets We abide by her rule

House by the Sea
Fill us with mist From a seaward assault And look to the distance Where the doves go to walk A safe house of looking glass Honoured in brine Taking in prisoners To make nothing of time Faint smells of catch For tomorrow's our feast Father's away On our fierce ocean deep It caters our weddings, Sundays, and Yule Until the mother forgets We abide by her rule
