Long afloat on shipless oceans
|
I did all my best to smile
|
'Til 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 hare when I was fox?
|
Now my foolish boat is leaning
|
Broken lovelorn on your rocks
|
|
For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not, come back tomorrow"
|
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow
|
|
I'm as puzzled as the newborn child
|
I'm as troubled as the tide
|
Should I stand amid the breakers?
|
Or 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
|
