Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Long afloat on shipless ocean
I did all my best to smile
Till your singing eyes and fingers
Drew me loving to your isle
[Verse 2]
Sail to me
Sail to me
Let me unfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
Touch me not
Touch me not
Oh, come back tomorrow
Oh, my heart
Oh, my heart
Shies from the sorrow
[Verse 5]
I am puzzled as a newborn baby
I am troubled as the tide
Should I stand amidst the breakers?
Or should I lie with death, my bride?
[Verse 6]
Swim to me
Swim to me
Oh, come let me unfold you
Here I am
Here I am
Waiting to hold you
Written by: Larry Beckett, Tim Buckley
