[00:02.26] Salty and Sweet—John Smith
[00:09.89] I’m a fishing girl, just a lonely girl
[00:16.08] The Town in which I live is breaking water
[00:23.01] I told my Mother, my violent brother
[00:29.26] All they give to me is reason to leave
[00:34.48]
[00:38.74] Imagine my surprise, a pair of ancient eyes
[00:48.85] Set into a face as old as land
[00:54.44]
[00:55.20] He stands in front of, he came out of the sea
[01:01.55] He says it hurts his skin to touch the sand
[01:07.54]
[01:08.24] He crawls back into the sea, the air is salty and sweet
[01:14.73] A backward glance by way of invitation
[01:18.06]
[01:21.15] I’m in now up to my knees, the air is salty and sweet
[01:27.58] I’ll leave my dress by way of explanation
[01:33.73]
[01:47.56] My man don’t care for clothes, the things he does not own
[01:53.68] They never trouble him, never give him grief
[02:00.06] ‘Cause he’s as soft as silk, as pure as baby milk
[02:06.62] And harder than earth that he scorns
