Hi Muso1070, a very enjoyable tune! The video looks well made and was scenic, being in and old fishing boat on the sea. Also, seeing what the fisherman goes through was done well. Thank you for posting this video! ....Bob

Here's the lyrics too.
I'll Be Home
V1 I've been torn by the rain and snow
my hands filled with cracks so old
every scar is a place and time
a fight on the ocean line
Oh life on the sea .... for me ..... me ....
I rise with the sound of hope
but fear i've still far to go
my mind broken down by the winds
a soul black and blue worn thin
Oh life on the sea .... for me ..... me ....
But one of these tides..........
C1 Ill be home.......
No more nights drifting on my own
Ill be home.......
Living life with my feet on stone
But on of these tides..........
Ill be home....... Home.........
V2 I can't see past the waves and fog
my face bruised and beaten so raw
every task is a chore and climb
this war i've been faced is mine
Oh life on the sea .... for me ..... me ....
I wait for my time to come
but now i've got work needs done
those dreams deep within my heart
one day a new place to start
Oh life on the sea .... for me ..... me ....
But one of these tides..........
C2 Ill be home.......
No more nights drifting on my own
Ill be home.......
Living life with my feet on stone
But one of these tides..........
Ill be home....... Home.........
Home........ Home.........

It's pleasant enough - well recorded and produced but the 'motif' of rising and falling notes at the end of the verses and chorus is repeated too much. Needs a bit of variation or maybe a different instrument (maybe a mandolin) to lift it up a bit. Just my opinion. The main idea is fine but it's just lacking a little spark somewhere.
