Long afloat on 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" I am puzzled as the newborn child I am troubled at the tide: Should I stand amid the breakers? Should I lie with death my bride? Hear me sing, "Swim to me, swim to me, Let me enfold you, Here I am, Here I am, Waiting to hold you"
