What happened to the fisherman's dream
When they rowed their last boat down
What happened to the dream of the fisherman
When they cast their last net round
What happened to the fisherman's love
When it drove him over the hill
What happened to the fisherman's dream
Is the fisherman dreaming still

Tell me did it fade away
Did it fade on down to the ocean
Did it fade away
Did it fade on down to the sea
To the ocean and the sea

What happened to the fisherman's love
Was it nowhere to be found
What happened to the love of the fisherman
When it drove him to the high high ground
What happened to the love of the fisherman
When they drove that last nail down
What happened to the fisherman's love
When they laid him in the ground

Tell me did it fade away
Did it fade on down to the ocean
Did it fade away
Did it fade on down to the sea
To the ocean and the sea

Tell me did it fade away
Did it fade on down to the ocean
Did it fade away
Did it fade on down to the sea
To the ocean and the sea
