Alan Duffy - Small Fish lyrics

The first thing that I saw as The fisherman smiled at me Were fields of empty people Floating out to sea The rain lashed down in darkness A lizard blinked an eye And time stopped in the silence The small fish gave a cry The next thing that I saw as Things were fading fast Were dreams of children's laughter Smouldering to dust The rain lashed down in darkness A lizard blinked an eye And time stopped in the silence The small fish gave a cry The last thing that I saw as My life pa**ed by Were fields of empty people Laying down to die The rain lashed down in darkness A lizard blinked an eye And time stopped in the silence To watch the burning sky
