My lovers gone
his boots no longer by my door
he left at dawn
and as I slept I felt him go
Returns no more
I will not watch the ocean
My lovers gone
no earthly ships will ever bring him home again
bring him home again
My lovers gone
I know that kiss will be my last
no more his song
the tune upon his lips has passed
I sing alone
while I watch the ocean
My lovers gone
no earthly ships will ever bring him home again
bring him home again
