From the recording This Is What I Heard - 2008

Lyrics

ON THE SEA OF SUFFERING (Walsh)

When I get to the other shore
I'm gonna know what I came there for
I want a taste of enlightenment
On the back of a peppermint

Every breath goes in and out
Every whisper is a shout
Every song makes you want to sing
On the Sea of Suffering

Six paths got me through the snow
Above the valley far below
Nine worlds got me feeling fine
I found a remedy so divine

Every broken heart is strong
Every side is right and wrong
Every girl gets a diamond ring
On the Sea of Suffering

Underneath that Bohdi Tree
There's a place for you and me
I really got it going on
I found a ship we leave at dawn

Sometimes it's hard to tell
Sometime it's a living hell
Sometimes I'm the Medicine King
On the Sea of Suffering

Every breath goes in and out
Every whisper is a shout
Every song makes you want to sing
On the Sea of Suffering

Every broken heart is strong
Every side is right and wrong
Every girl gets a diamond ring
On the Sea of Suffering
