Songtexte
Love will come, and love will go
As the seas roll on forever
And lost love has the everlasting flow
Of a never-ending river
And it's not an easy reckoning
But sometimes I have the notion
That womankind, and her heart and mind
Sails on a restless ocean
A tall ship came from windward away
On a grey Atlantic morning
She showed no lights or colours
In the hour before the dawning
On a full rig run to the rising sun
She reached our starboard quarter
And I'll ne'er forget the name she bore
She was called The Neptune's Daughter
Her sails were white as ivory
And her rigging sang like harp-strings
Her spars were black as ebony
And her wheel spun free of lashings
Her cloak of grey was the spindrift spray
As she split the waves asunder
I can see her now as she crossed our bow
As we gazed in silent wonder
Her course was set by destiny
And no helmsman's hand could change her
We hailed her and we signaled
"You are standing into danger"
But she left us free on the westerly
And I watched her pale sail sinking
And if only I was upon her deck
Was all that I was thinking
Love will come, and love will go
As the years roll on forever
Lost love has the everlasting flow
Of a never-ending river
And it's not an easy reckoning
But sometimes I have the notion
That womankind, and her heart and mind
Is a tall ship on the ocean
That womankind, and her heart and mind
Sails on a restless ocean
