Sun Kil Moon - King Fish lyrics

I sit here and wait On the banks of the Carquinez Strait Watching pelicans swim For a beak of sunning king fish And I meditate Up shore from the golden gate Watching sea lions bask in sunshine And find that my eyes Can still be awed and surprised All night I hear wails Of the union pacific rails Of ally cat scratch Of lost baby humpbacks Of incoming ships In from their epic long trips And of mother's dying these sounds never leave Be there for them Spend every moment you can And love your girl dearly Look deep into her soul And say that I love you Before your body turns cold I love my girl dearly And also her little dog Boo We're a small pack And hey we're happy too I sing her a song I write her a poem I gave her my bed And the keys to my home
