|
Long afloat on distant 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 heart 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 |
|
Here I am, here I am |
|
I am puzzled as the newborn child |
|
I am riddled 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 |
|
Here I am, here I am |
|
I am puzzled as the newborn child |
|
I am riddled 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 |
