Текст пісні
Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
Till 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"
I'm as puzzled as the oyster
I'm as troubled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers?
Or shall I lie with death, my bride?
Hear me sing, "Swim to me
Swim to me; let me enfold you
Oh my heart, oh my heart
Is waiting to hold you"
