Lyrics

Long afloat on distant 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 about me?

Were you hare when I was fox?

Now my foolish heart is leaning

Broken love on your rocks

For you sing, "Touch me not, touch me not

Come back tomorrow

Oh, my heart, oh, my heart

Shies from sorrow"

Here I am, here I am

I am puzzled as the newborn child

I am riddled at the tide

Should I stand amid the breakers?

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"

Here I am, here I am

I am puzzled as the newborn child

I am riddled at the tide

Should I stand amid the breakers?

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"
