lyrics

Saving Jonah

He’s opened up the heavens boys
The sea won’t let us pass
We’ll round the Cape of Good Hope
Tie him to the mast and get him home
Saving Jonah

You think that it’s an omen boys
It’s all inside your heads
He’s only made of flesh and blood
We shouldn’t wish him dead
So take him home
Saving Jonah

He’s some mother’s only son
He is not a curse
No need to throw him overboard
Things couldn’t get much worse
Please sail us home
Saving Jonah

I’ll kill the man who draws his sword
It’s the storm that we should fight
Leave him in the shadows
And get this ship safe through the night
And guide her home
Saving Jonah

It’s the crashing of the waves my boys
It’s driving us insane
The ship is helpless on the surf
Will we be seen again?
Let’s dream of home
Saving Jonah

I think we may be winning boys
The rain’s begun to ease
The sun is rising in the east
And the wind is now a breeze
We may get home
Saving Jonah

The sea and winds are friendly now
We’re through the other side
Has anybody seen him?
What makes you think he died?
We’re nearly home.
Saving Jonah
