While we can fake it you won't even say
Both arms hanging from the ball and chain
Tongue-tied and twisted from braiding the rope
Both arms hanging from your fading hope
Both arms hanging from your fading hope
Heard it in a whisper
Heard it in a jailer's song
Packed it in a suitcase
Lost it halfway round the world
Out beyond Harmsway you gave me a lift
Past the shipyard and the empty pit
And you said my cover was already blown
And one too many's the one I've known
One too many's the one I've known
Heard it in a whisper
Heard it in a jailer's song
Packed it in a suitcase
Lost it halfway round the world
I wish you wary and I wish you wise
Then of course I wish you well
Rode into town on the back of surprise
Then of course I laughed like hell
Then of course I laughed like hell
I wish you wary and I wish you wise
Rode into town on the back of surprise
I wish you wary and I wish you wise
Then of course I wish you well
Rode into town on the back of surprise
Then of course I laughed like hell
Then of course I laughed like hell
