On the floating, shipless oceans 
I did all my best to smile 
Til 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 me? 
Were you here when I was full sail? 
Now my foolish boat is leaning, 
Broken lovelorn on your rocks. 
For you sang "Touch me not, touch me not, [bad word] back tomorrow" 
Oh my heart, oh my heart shies from the sorrow 

I'm as puzzled as a newborn child, 
I'm as riddled as the tide 
Should I stand amid the breakers? 
Or shall 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."
