Roch Voisine - A Fishing Day lyrics

It's four a.m. and the wind's kind of hard today

But they'll go out anyway

Against the deck the waves are hitting strong

The wives will have to pray

The daring ones will sail out to sea

Risking their lives, brave and free

And through the storm their faith will keep them strong

And bring them back where they belong

Home free

The channel rumbles and groans to the frail boats

That dare to leave the coast

So many died down the road, down the road of time

Leaving nothing but tears behind

The daring ones will sail out to sea

Risking their lives, brave and free

And through the storm their faith will keep them strong

And bring them back where they belong

Home free

Far on the site the men will work and pray

For the catch of the day

Piling the traps, pulling the ropes

A flock of seagulls break the peace of the newborn day

Hours later the cages are packed on the deck

There goes the working day

Packing the trucks, back on the road, back to Pointe-Sapin

There goes the fishing day

The daring ones will sail out to sea

Risking their lives, brave and free

And through the storm their faith will keep them strong

And bring them back where they belong

Home free

Home free
