After These Tides

Verse

Out on the water where the Maine winds roar,

Stonington’s callin’ me to that rocky shore.

Traps in the deep, where my hopes run high,

Chasin’ that big catch ‘neath a coastal sky.

Some days are tough, hauls come up bare,

But I keep on pushin’ through the ocean air.

With a heart full of grit and the stars burnin’ bright,

I’m holdin’ on tight for a better night.

Chorus

After these tides, the sea’s gonna roll,

Fill up my traps, lift this fisherman’s soul.

Stonington’s heart beats strong in the fight,

I’ll find my way home after these tides.

Verse

Sun hits the harbor, paints the waves with gold,

Boats rockin’ steady, stories yet untold.

Every buoy’s a dream, every line’s a prayer,

Hopin’ for a haul to get me there.

Tides keep on turnin’, like a song I know,

Driftin’ through the speakers on my truck’s radio.

With my boots on the deck and the future in sight,

I’m ridin’ this wave after these tides.

Chorus

After these tides, the sea’s gonna roll,

Fill up my traps, lift this fisherman’s soul.

Stonington’s heart beats strong in the fight,

I’ll find my way home after these tides.

Bridge

When the waves crash hard and the nights feel long,

I lean on the rhythm of this coastal song.

Through the storms and the struggle, I’ll never let go,

‘Cause the ocean’s got dreams only tides can show.

Verse

Back to the docks with the moon shinin’ down,

Stonington’s my home, yeah, this is my town.

Every trap’s a chance, every dawn’s a call,

This fisherman’s life, man, I love it all.

Chorus

After these tides, the sea’s gonna roll,

Fill up my traps, lift this fisherman’s soul.

Stonington’s heart beats strong in the fight,

I’ll find my way home after these tides.

Outro

So raise up a cold one to the sea and the skies,

To the dreams we chase under Stonington’s lights.

When the moon pulls right, I’ll be standin’ with pride,

Haulin’ in hope after these tides.
