(ORIGINAL)"GHOST" (fishermans dream)copyriight 2008 W.O.R

click more info for lyrics original song by wise old river with 12 string and bozouki

It was a holy night, it was christmas eve
But they were far too poor to take a rich mans leave

and of the four young men out on the road that night
not even one escaped with his life

and though the moon was out , and the path was clear . a once steady hand now shakes with fear

The bodies they were never found, but four sihlouetes etched on the ground

Four wives were left , seven children too
the spirits looking back ,must had seen an awful veiw and of the four young men ,well i can tell you fair. for without me there would be just three there

falling on your sword or going in your sleep ,I can testify there is a world beneath
of a million souls searching for their way ,no peaceful rest with no grave to lay

I am just one name in an ancient scheme
just a grain of sand in a fishermans dream

so let your body fall ,and let your soul arise,let your spirit fly from the ashe of life
standing on the shoulders of a giant rain ,may the waters cleanse and bring you home again

Another great song and that little break at the end with the finger pounding was GREAT I had to listen to it a dozen times and each time it made me happier and happier - Uncle Phil

Top song great musicians ...excellent

[bazirilath]

brilliant instrumentation, words, everything. Is the last verse hinting at reincarnation, just curious?

[jimowston]

Thanks so much for this nice tune. I also like the two-handed hammer-ons on the bouzouki. What tuning do you use on the zouk, GDAE, GDAD, or something else?

[bluedanbob]

Nice, haunting, and engaging. Thank you.

[jamestdeans]
