A Lonesome Sailor's Song

This is a lonesome song for two With no one to sing it back to you This is a message to carry on To the love my life that I lost in the blue Where did you go? Oh if I'd known If only I'd known Well I turned my head Only for moment And the waves, they threw you overboard This is a lonely sailor's melody A howl in the dark and a cry through the night I'm so lonely can't you see? My love won't you please come back to me? Oh my darling All this time that I sing, I sing for you my dear I sing cause I need you near And I turned my head Only for a moment And the waves, they threw you Oh my darling You dance in the wind and you sing to the stars Oh my darling Will I see you again? This is a sad sad tune you hear Cause the minutes take hours on this lonely sea I'm so tired I can hardly steer The sails above my only company In the distant fog I see the rising of the tide As I count my breath I feel the fear build up inside But in this moment clear I hear the faintest cry It says come away with me my dear, it's time to say goodbye And I know That after the fight On this cold and dreary night The dark is swallowed by the light There you stand before my eyes My darling We dance in the wind and we sing to the stars Oh my darling How long has it been? Oh my darling We dance in the wind and we sing to the stars Oh my brothers When I see you again This is beautiful song for two And my love will sing it back for you This is a message to carry on To the brothers I wait for, I wait here for you
