Revisiting this site for the first time in a while. Prompted me to revisit one of my songs posted earlier

The Hook

A heavy splash, a silver flash
n the corner of the eye
The ripples spread out far and wide,
The creator just out of sight.
But ripples become waves and waves become storms
that crash on the shores of the soul,
And when the surge subsides, all you will find
is a single sparkling scale.

A fisherman sits and stares at the see,
tying up his six string rod,
And swimming round his head is a story
of a fish that has never been caught.
He ties on a little rock to act as a weight
Digs down through the roots and earth
Pulls up a fat worm for to be the bait
but there's one little thing he's forgot

Chorus
What you need is a hook, Yeah
What you need is a hook, Yeah
A small twist of faith, a whole lot of luck
what you need is a hook, , Yeah
Once it sinks in, it's in there for good
Just like bitter sweet love
All you need is a hook, , , Yeah

A fish on the line, a moment in time,
That one that go away,
So join the old man and Captain Ahab,
Spinning yarn in the Mudcat Cafe
Like Christ on the cross, show the size of your loss
I'd swear it was as big as a whale
But every good tragedy, is the trophy
That you can mount on the wall,

Chorus
What you need is a hook, Yeah
What you need is a hook, Yeah
A small twist of faith, a whole lot of luck
what you need is a hook, , Yeah
Once it sinks in, it's in there for good
Just like bitter sweet love
All you need is a hook, , , Yeah
