Long afloat on shipless
oceans

I did all my best to
smile
A

'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"

But I'm as puzzled as
the newborn child I'm as riddled 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
