Long afloat on shipless oceans

I did all my best to smile

'Til your singing eyes and fingers

Drew me loving to your isle

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,

Touch me not, touch me not,

come back tomorrow:

O my heart, O my heart

shies from the sorrow



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?

Swim to me,

Swim to me,

Let me enfold you:

Here I am,

Here I am,

Waiting to hold you
