Ralph McTell - Throw Out a Line and Dream lyric
Ringtone: Send Throw Out a Line and Dream Ringtone to your Cell Phone!
I said, look at the river
You said, it's only a stream
But I said, I've seen people with nets out there
You said, they just throw out a line and dream.
I see a river, you see a stream
Wise men sleep, it is fools who dream
Men out there trying to net the moon
Come on down to the river (the sun is going down)
The fish will be jumping soon.
Throw out a line and dream.
I said, look at the harbor
You said, it's only a quay
And I said, I've seen big ships sailing in
You said, they leave and they sail out to sea.
I say a harbour, you say a quay
You want them locked up, I want them free
Chorus
I said, look at the road
You said, it's only a track
And I said, I've seen people with trucks out there
You said, they leave and they don't come back.
I say a road and you say a track
I seem to need you just to bring me back
From the edge of the earth where it touches the sky
Come on down to the road (look at the horizon)
And feel the trucks rolling by.
Chorus
I see a river, you see a stream
Wise men sleep, it is fools who dream
Men out there, trying to net the moon
Come on down to the river (the sun is going down)
The fish will be jumping soon.
Chorus
