[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

[Refrain 1]
And you sang, "Sail to me
Sail to me, let me enfold you."
Here I am, here I am
Waiting to hold you

[Verse 2]
Did I dream you dreamed about me?
Were you hare when I was fox?
And now my foolish boat is leaning
Broken, lovelorn on your rocks

[Refrain 2]
For you sang, "Touch me not
Touch me not, come back tomorrow."
Oh, my heart, oh, my heart
Shies from the sorrow

[Verse 3]
I'm as puzzled as a newborn child
I'm as riddled as the tide
Should I stand amid the breakers
Or should I lie with death my bride?
[Refrain 3]
Hear me sing, "Swim to me
Come to me, let me enfold you."
Here I am, here I am
Waiting to hold you
