Cover art for The Sweetest Wave lyrics by Funeral for a Friend

This song is about him never giving up on going home. I also believe that the fisherman has found his home in his wife, Elenor.

What this song means to me, is just a simple self-realization.. A person can find a home in anyone they love, and when they do, it's just to heartbreaking to ever leave it.
