That come all the way from China

And Jesus was a sailor

And he spent a long time watching
他站在孤獨的木塔上
From his lonely wooden tower

Only drowning men could see him

He said 'All men will be sailors then

Until the sea shall free them'
直到大海最終把他們解放“
But he himself was broken
可在天空開裂之前
Long before the sky would open

For saken almost human

He sank beneath your wisdom like a stone

On our lady of the harbour

There are heroes in the seaweed

There are children in the morning
晨光裡有無數孩子的臉
They are leaning out for love

And they will lean that way forever
在蘇珊手裡握著的鏡子裡面
While Suzanne holds the mirror
