lyrics

She was a lady, the seventh of ten
The sea was her most beloved friend
Taken by tides and the strange life they bring
But never taught how to think

She took to the water beneath the moonlight
The dusk hummed a tune as she held her skirt tight
She buried that whale like we buried our speech
But ours sank too deep to reach

No daughter of mine will leave home
It is not within her to go it alone
No daughter of mine will leave home

We are crippled by freedom we cannot afford
We had our minds dropped right out of that boat
I'm burrowed in eelgrass, I'm tangled in weed
Maude cast her net but it didn't find me, or any of us

No daughter of mine will leave home...
