Intro
Verse 1
I wish I was a fisherman, tumbling on the seas
Far away from dry land, and it's bitter memories
Casting out my sweet line, with abandonment and love
No ceiling bearing down on me, save the starry sky above
Chorus
With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
Verse 2
I wish I was the brake man, on a hurtlin' fevered train
Crashing headlong into the heartland, like a cannon in the rain
With the beating of the sleepers, and the burning of the coal
Counting towns flashing by me, in a night that's full of soul
Chorus
With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
Verse 3
Oh I know I will be loosened, from bonds that hold me fast
And the chains all hung around me, will fall away at last
And on that fine and fateful day, I will take thee in my hands
I will ride on the train, I will be the fisherman
Chorus
With light in my head, you in my arms, woo woo ooh
Light in my head, you in my arms
Light in my head, you in my arms
Light in my head, you in my arms
