Oh, how I hate the day that I set foot upon this ship To set out onto the ocean It was the day I left my heart behind Never sure I’d see you again
I would sing my songs to you my love Until all the sky is falling I would swim these dark seas ‘til I reached your arms If it meant holding you tomorrow
Ohhh... Ohhh...
And as I lie awake in the belly of this boat Tearing through this rolling thunder All I can think of are your sweet lips And how they could warm the coldest winter
I stare at the stars this night, my dear In hopes we see the same For, as far as these stars can be from me It’s the closest that we can be Yeah, it’s the closest we’ll ever be
