On the floating, ship less oceans I did all my best to smile Till your singing eyes and fingers Drew me loving to your isle And you sang, "Sail to me Sail to me, let me enfold you" Here I am, here I am Waiting to hold you
Did I dream you dreamed about me? Were you here when I was full sail? Now my foolish boat is leaning Broken lovelorn on your rocks
For you sang, "Touch me not Touch me not, come back tomorrow" Ohh my heart, ohh my heart Shies from the sorrow
Well, I'm as puzzled as a newborn child I'm as riddled as the tide Should I stand amid the breakers? Or shall I lie with death my bride?
