Long afloat on shipless oceans   I did all my best to smile   'Til 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 am as puzzled as the newborn child   I am as troubled as the tide   Should I stand amid the breakers?   Or should I lie with death, my bride?      Hear me sing, swim to me   Swim to me, let me enfold you   Here I am, here I am   Waiting to hold you
