Lyrics

[Verse 1]
My lover's 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
[Verse 2]
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring
Him home again
Bring him home again
[Verse 3]
My lover's 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
[Verse 4]
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring
Him home again
Bring him home again
[Verse 5]
My lover's 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
[Verse 6]
My lover's gone
No earthly ships will ever bring
Him home again
Bring him home again
