Sunken Ship (Held Beneath The Waves) Life like a furrowed field to the plough Reveals the journey travelled up to now Each twist and turn of the creases in the brow Memories of the curtains final bow Stories shared and handed down Listen carefully to each sound For Time plans to steal them to their graves In the sunken ship held beneath the waves “Please stop by again just to check and say ~ hello If you have the time before you go I’ve stories to tell you of how I met my Joe The man I loved and couldn’t bare to let go” The photographs hung upon the wall Happy days captured recall Time plans to steal them to their graves In the sunken ship held beneath the waves Lend a shell to every sound To the yarns spun handed down Now shared, no more confined to watery graves Of the sunken ships held beneath the waves

about

Sunken Ship (Held Beneath The Waves) was played on BBC 6 Music on the BBC Introducing Mixtape with Tom Robinson on 13/03/2017. The track was played again for a second time on BBC 6 Music on 01/04/2017 on The Tom Robinson Show.

This is what Tom Robinson had to say about the song "...It has a lyric every bit as mysterious as it's title and it's one that I personally found deeply affecting."
