Johnathan's wife, Mary is left behind after Johnathan's death. She has three small children and flips between being mad at Johnny for shirking his duty (which she feels she cannot) and simply missing him.

lyrics

Oh I waited too long for my love to come home

and the sea turned to serpents and foam.

When his ghost came to me it was covered in weeds

and the fishes had chewed him to bone

Oh hollow eyed man, tell me how could you go

when you've wife and two children on shore

when the call of the sea is a siren mouthed tune

and your duty weighs 50 times more?

"Don't weep for me love" says your ruin faced form

like Id pine for a man who has failed me

Still I find myself wound in your seafarers clothes

and breathing the scent of your whiskey.

Oh widow am I, all tied up in death,

and I cant live on sorrow or pity.

May your name die away with your daughters in tow

who i know wont survive here without me.

And lovers there are, I who I cant say i love

cos your name calls me out to the waves.

I will follow you, love, in this winter so cold

cos it's death and forgetting that saves.

"Don't weep for me love" says your ruin faced form

like Id pine for a man who has failed me.

Still I find myself wound in your seafarers clothes,

and breathing the scent of your whiskey.

So give me your hand, as the sea gives you breath,

and you rise back up out of the salty.

oh you stink like the dead, but its what we both are

and the least you can do is come with me.

I'm at a lack of words when it comes to expressing my love for this album. It's a masterpiece by every means of the word. Each song flows beautifully into the next, the lyrics are absolutely mystifying, as well as the voices that sing them, the instruments create a symbiotic marvel to listen to. All of these factors together make for a astronomical listening experience. Mae
