Until He's Finally Home

He stands by the wheelhouse and looks at the sky

There's rain on the harbor there's rain in his eyes

As he thinks of his woman she waits on the quay

And he won't stop until he's home

He's fished for a full week with nothing to show

Like so many others he'll soon have to go

To work at whatever in Ontario

But he won't stop until he's home

What will they do if the fish are all gone

What will it mean to their daughters and sons

I know I must go and I must not delay

For the reason I leave is the reason I'd stay

But with your love to guide me I'm never alone

And I won't stop until I'm home

Now he's up in the morning and out on the road

With Steven and Darren they're all gonna go

To B.C. or Alberta or to Ontario

But they won't stop until they're home

If home's where the heart is then his isn't here

You can't drink the water you can't breath the air

But the money is good and the bankers don't care

So he won't stop until he's home

I know I must go and I must not delay

For the reason I leave is the reason I'd stay

But with your love to guide me I'm never alone

And I won't stop until I'm home

He sits in the bunkhouse and stares at the sky

There's rain on the window there's rain in his eyes

As he thinks of his woman she waits by the quay
And she won't stop until he's home

Until he's home until he's home

Until he's finally home
