Long afloat on shipless oceans
I did all my best to smile
'Til your singing eyes and fingers drew me closer to your isle
And you sang sail to me, sail to me
Let me unfold 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 newborn child
I'm 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 unfold you
Here I am, here I am waiting to hold you
