I went along and saw you at Riverside
Singing Amazing Grace with the evening tide
You said, "This life is a race"
and then you cried
and you wondered to me where you'll be next time
and we made our peace, and we had life
and we prayed for grace when we died
cool as the color of the sea
cool as the color of the sea
Yeah, I'm an innocent man but they got me
Up on the gallows but for the wrong sin
for the wrong sin
It only would've mattered if I was getting away
It only would've mattered if I had someplace else to be
Yeah - my home is the sea
But I'm stuck here with me
Yeah - my home is the sea
But I'm stuck here with me
