GThe boats were all set to depart
The crews mend the nets for the Djourney
One Glast kiss from sweethearts and Cwives
Who were Dleft standing there by the Gsea.
GOne young wife with tears in her eyes
Who had only a short time been Dwed
But with Gothers she waited re Cturn
Of her Dhusband the fisherman GNed.
GShe watched the small boats where they sailed
Just a spec on the distant ho Drizon
Then she Gturned her weary foot Chome
For she Dknew that the night would soon Gcome.
GHow Cempty the Gvillage would Dbe
How Glonely the fisherman's Dwife
For Gthis was Ned's first trip to Csea
Since she'd Dmoved to the village his Gwife.
Brief inst break? D?G  
GSome days now have passed since they've gone
Was time to return to the Dharbor
The Gwomen and children were Cthere
With Dlaughter and hearts all a Gstir.
GAnd soon there were cries of delight
From the lips of the ones who were Dgathered
A Gpointed white sail had been Cseen
They were Dwelcomed and hailed as they Gneared.
GAnd then came a sign of despair
For the sight of the boats they had Dyearned
They Gall knew that fifteen had Cleft
But Donly fourteen had re Gturned.
GThere CGrace so Gtorn could not Dsee
Was GNed's boat that could not be Dfound
The Gothers trekked back to their Chomes
While DGrace knelt there on the Gground.
Brief inst break? D?G  
GThe story was told of the wind
And the storm how the one boat was Dswept
How the Gmen had been lost in the Cnight
Then the Dwhole village silently Gwept.
The Cvillage still Gtells how for Dyears
The Gyoung fisherwoman and Dbride
Had Gwatched for a boat to come Cin
Each Dday by the lonely sea Gside.
