Lyrics Second Person

Second Person

Gone Fishing

Meditation on the new

Another version of an I Love You

It's a variation on a theme

It's attraction speaking a different name

Oh you can't imagine how

Nice it is to write it down

Or say it aloud

I mean it means a lot to me

To have proof of the existence of other fish in the sea Oh

I've gone fishing

So long

I've gone fishing

Love was a revolving door

It was a neon sign

That couldn't light the street anymore

I used to think about him all the time

Like going round and round on the circle line

Oh the thing about a broken heart

Is it's like a mechanical toy without its moving parts

Oh but I feel like I'm on the mend

Because I'm getting up and I'm getting dressed and I'm getting out again Oh

I've gone fishing

So long

I've gone fishing

I kit myself out with rods and reels

For to play sardines with the electric eels

Chase little angel fish with graceful tails

Play hide and seek with the killer whales

Maybe a game of catch me if you can

With a submarine upon a bed of sand

You see I am a deep sea diver now

And I have never been afraid to drown Oh

I've gone fishing

So long

I've gone fishing

Oh

I've gone fishing

So long

I've gone fishing

and below:

Letting you go, there ain't no time to waste

Letting you know that I'll be gone all day

I've gone fishing

Letting you go

I take it in my stride

Letting you know I won't be back tonight

I've gone fishing
