Fisherman'S Blues (2006 Remaster)
The Waterboys
4:27[Chorus] I'm gonna suffer for you no longer I'm gonna suffer for you no more I'm gonna write you out of my life And shut the door You tried to drive a wedge between me and my friends You pushed me to the edge time and again I've been living in your shade since I can't remember when Now I'm bringing this charade to an end [Chorus] There was subtlety and skill in your manipulative ways You chipped away my will so you could make me stay You soothed me with your voice until I obeyed But I'm making my own choice from today You used the tongue of love like a boxer uses fists You contained me like a glove or a creeping cloak of mist You guaranteed the stars but there always was a twist Now I see you as you are, Egotist ! [Chorus] I've got a ticket in my hand and I must be moving on But I want you to understand that from the moment I am gone I release and let you go, you owe nothing now to me I'm not angry anymore, I'm free ! [Chorus]
